Faith Hill - A Man´s Home Is His Castle lyrics

Album: It Matters To Me (1995)

Linda works the diner pouring coffee slinging hash
she said i´dn´t have come in today but i really need the cash
i know i cannot fool anyone cause dark glasses tell no lies
but make up won´t cover up a blackened eye oh no
you see jimmy works construction now
but yesterday it rained
so he went down to the liquor store
and by noon he felt no pain
well i came in an hour late
then i let his supper burn
well he hit the roof hit the wall
and then it was my turn

he said a mans home is his castle
it always has been & so it remains
he holds the keys in a fist of rage
his home is his castle & mine is a cage

some one must have heard the noise
and they dialed nine one one
and the cop who showed up at the door asked
is there a problem son
and jimmy smiled & said no sir just a little fight thats all
hey you know how it gets some times
when you are laying down the law oh no

so i pulled out my suitcase
I started packing up my clothes
and jimmy said now linda
where do you expect to go with those
i told him ive tried but not an ounce of love survived
then he grabbed my wrists & shouted
you are not leaving here alive

she said i am saving up my money
and when i get the nerve i will run
but jim dont give up easily
so i intend to buy a gun
he´ll never see the way he treats me is a crime
somebody ought to lock him up
but i am the one whos done the time

he says a mans home is his castle
it always has been & so it remains
he holds the keys in a fist of rage
his home is his castle & my cage
