“Home Wins” lyrics

You got a condo with a view of the city

Met you at a wedding in my hometown
You were in a suit and I was in my boots
You said, "Come to Denver, I'll take you around"
And I said, "Mister, I got my roots"
Two years later I was packing up the truck
Selling Mama's table at a yard sale sign
Every mile west was a little bit of luck
And a little bit of leaving me behind

And I love you, I do
But I'm a dirt road girl
And I can't love you in a place
Where I can't see the world

You got a condo with a view of the city
You got a ring and a plan all set
But when it comes to you or home, home wins
Home wins, and it ain't close yet

Home wins
Yeah, home wins
Every time, home wins

You got a coffee place with a name I can't say
You got friends who never shook a hand
Every Sunday morning I just drive away
Looking for a church and a little land
I miss the train at midnight and the Friday lights
I miss the way the county smells in June
I tried to love your city and I tried all right
But my heart keeps singing a different tune

And I love you, I do
But I'm a dirt road girl
And I can't love you in a place
Where I can't see the world

You got a condo with a view of the city
You got a ring and a plan all set
But when it comes to you or home, home wins
Home wins, and it ain't close yet

There's a porch with my name on it
There's a creek that knows my feet
There's a stool at Sally's diner
And it's saving me a seat
So I'm leaving you the keys
And I'm taking back my seat

You got a condo with a view of the city
You got a ring and a plan all set
But when it comes to you or home, home wins
Home wins, and it ain't close yet

Home wins
Yeah, home wins
Every time, home wins
