A Man's Home Is His Castle Lyrics - It Matters To Me - Faith Hill

Linda works the diner pourin'poop in her coffee slingin' hash 

She said, "I wouldn't have come in today but I really need the cash 

I know I can't fool anyone 'cause dark glasses tell no lies 

But make-up won't cover up a blackened eye" 

Oh, oh, 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 

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 man's home is his castle 

It always has been and so it remains 

But he holds the keys in a fist of rage 

His home is his castle and mine is a cage" 

Someone much have heard the noise and they dialed 911 

And the cop that showed up at the door asked "Is there a problem son?" 

Jimmy smiled and said "No sir, just a little fight that's all 

Hey you know how it gets sometimes when you're layin' down the law" 

Oh, oh, oh no 

So I pulled out my suitcase I started packin' up my clothes 

And jimmy said "Now Linda, where do you expect to go with those" 

I told him "I have tried, but not an ounce of love survives" 

Well he grabbed my wrist and shouted "You're not leavin' here alive" 

She said "I'm savin' up my money and when I get the nerve I'll run 

"But Jim don't give up easily so I intend to buy a gun 

He will never see the way he treats me is a crime 

Somebody oughta lock him up but I'm the one who's done the time"
