"A Man's Home Is His Castle" Lyrics

3.0 / 5
Song updated, review now!
Linda works the diner, pouring coffee slinging 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 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.
Well 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."

"Some one must have heard the noise,
and they dialed nine-one-one,
and the cop who showed up at the door asked,
'Is there a problem son?'
And Jimmy smiled and said, 'No sir, just a little fight that's all.
Hey you know how it gets some times,
when you're laying down the law.' Oh no

So I pulled out my suitcase,
I started packing up my clothes.
And Jimmy said, 'Now Linda,
where do you expect to go with those?'
I told him, 'I've tried but not an ounce of love survived.'
Then he grabbed my wrists and shouted,
'You're not leaving here alive!'"

She said, "I'm saving 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.
For he will never see the way he treats me as a crime.
Somebody ought to lock him up,
but I'm the one whos done the time.

He says, '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".
