All of my life I've used the earth as a pillow and the sky as a blanket of blue
Now all that I own is the shirt on my back and the blanket and the saddle on you
So mare take me home, mare take me home, mare take me home, mare take me home
And I spent some time in jail, but then my face turned pale and my health was starting to fail
So the sheriff he let me go, and then the town's people caught me and they run me out of town on a rail
Mare take me home, mare take me home, mare take me home, mare take me home
Mare carry me, take me right down to the place where I wanna be
Cause home's where I should go and I never wanna travel that god-forsaken trail no more
So mare take me home, mare take me home, mare take me home, mare take me home,
Mare take me home, mare take me home, mare take me home, mare take me home,
Mare take me home, mare take me home, mare take me home, mare
