Patsy Come Home

[Verse 1]
Mile marker ninety two on forty going' west
I'd been driving' without rest the whole night through
I saw this little cardboard sign about to fade away
Made a tear roll down my face with just one line

[Chorus]
Patsy come home it said Patsy come home
I bet a mother's watching' out a window or a lover's waiting' by the phone
No matter who's wrong no matter what you're running from
Somebody's tryin' to tell you they love you Patsy come home

[Verse 2]
By Little Rock the rain was turning into snow
By now I'd prayed she'd gone back home again
I won't forget for some time the hopeful kind of love
Or the desperation of that cardboard sign

[Chorus]

[Outro]
Somebody's trying to tell you they love you Patsy come home
