Baby it’s so clear to me I can see it coming down, I been keepin and eye on everything from Copenhagen town tryin’a make a great escape but I can seem to wrap my head around how I broke down
Baby I’ve been gone too long so far from our home this place ain’t got no internet, no satellite or phone try to touch base when I can I curse myself for leaving you alone, yea all alone

Well I ride these buses and the Train and I walk these streets in the freezing rain but I won’t let the darkness hold me down...
Cause I’m coming home from Copenhagen town
Baby I’m so scared today, the dollar’s going down the money that i’m makin here is nothing in this town. the drunks don’t seem to pay no mind it’s suites me fine, cause I feel like a clown, like a clown
Baby I know the price of fuel back home keeps going up, Maybe you can buy some food and still gas up the truck. I sent the money for the rent, we’re fortunate but most are outta luck.. out of luck
Well I pluck these strings till my fingers bleed and I wipe the blood off on my sleeve
and I Won’t let my baby down
Cause I’m coming home from Copenhagen Town.

well I sleep all day and I sing all night and I’m marking My pay down...
Then I just hang around
Baby Everything feels like it’s crumbling to the ground, banks are taking people’s homes the drums of war still sound the corporate politicians raise their glasses while they take our country down, take her down.
Well I ride the Buses and the train and I walk the streets in the pouring rain but I won’t let it get me down
And I’ll bend these strings till my fingers bleed and I can’t stand on my aching knees
cause I will never let you down....
I’m coming home from Copenhagen town
I’ll be coming home from Copenhagen town.
