I've always tried
to do
The right thing
in my life
Take care of my house
my picket fence
My children and
my wife
On my way home
On my way home
I'm on my way home
Clark Griswold
here I go
You could walk
a mile in my shoes
but could not
Mope around for
a day in my socks
wakin' up
Coughin' up a whole
range of crap
Coffee mug
'World's Greatest Dad'
Livin' life in
a bathrobe
or some cargo's
On borrowed time
worry lines like
a barcode
Wearin' my Chicago
Bears cap
feelin' like Clark
My family fillin'
my heart
I try to do right
Try to do good
I try to do the best
I can man
all of my life
I've done all I could
To try and be a
better man
but I've realised
Hey
I gotta be clever now
Hey
I gotta go get it now
I took a look at the
way that I'm livin'
Mistakes are better
never made than
forgiven right?
Whoah whoah
whoah
Whoah whoah
whoah whoah oh
I've always
tried to do
The right thing
in my life
Take care of
my house
my picket fence
My children and
my wife
On my way home
On my way home
I'm on my way home
Clark Griswold
here I go
Yeah
they say a real
man's a family man
Pays the bills
has a travel plan
a caravan
That way it feels
like everywhere
that I am
Trouble follows till
I unravel and
crash the van
Always managin'
in damage control
Count my
blessings like
casualties and add
up the toll
And matters resolve
I plan on gettin'
back to my goals
But this life a
getaway
so grab on and hold
When I'm away
this world leads
me astray
Everything starts
breakin' apart
so I'm spendin'
my days
Tryna carve out
a place
That'll fill that empty
space in my heart
To say that
I'm a beautiful mess
I'd say the truth
is a stretch
I confess I'm only
human
but I'm doin'
my best
Uncertain if all the
hurtin' is worth it
Yeah I know
I couldn't be further
from perfect
Whoah whoah
whoah
Whoah whoah
whoah whoah oh
I've always
tried to do
The right thing
in my life
Take care of
my house
my picket fence
My children and
my wife
On my way home
On my way home
I'm on my way home
Clark Griswold
here I go
Life can be so
beautiful
But sometimes
I feel
I make a mess
of things
Life can be so
beautiful
But sometimes
I fear
I make a mess
of everything
Life can be
so beautiful
But sometimes
I feel
I make a mess
of things
Life can be
so beautiful
But sometimes
I fear
I make a mess
of everything
woah
Oh
Uh I'm on my
way home
Clark Griswold
here I go
