Lyrics
Poor old Tom, living on the hill
Says he wants to quit but I know he never will
The bottle's his ticket to an early grave
Nothing you can do, nothing you can say except he's
Safe at home, safe at home
Baby, stop crying, got to leave him alone
You'll be safe at home, safe at home
Mama, won't you call me on the telephone
Oh, what ever happened to the friends that I had
Got themselves in trouble when things were looking bad
Meet me down by the river, light of the moon
Everything you need's in my silver spoon, you'll be
Safe at home, safe at home
Baby, stop crying, got to leave him alone
You'll be safe at home, safe at home
Mama, won't you call me on the telephone
All right
Well, I know what you mean and it's driving me crazy
She hasn't come home, everything looking hazy
Come in a hurry, fall far behind
You can't love a woman, gonna tease your mind
And you'll be
Safe at home, safe at home
Baby, stop crying, got to leave him alone
You'll be safe at home, safe at home
Mama, won't you call me on the telephone
Safe at home, safe at home
Baby, stop crying, got to leave him alone
You'll be safe at home, safe at home
Baby, stop cryin', you'll be safe at home
