Lyrics

[Chorus]
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
[Verse 1]
You could walk a mile in my shoes
But could not walk around for a day in my socks
Waking up, coughing up a whole range of crap
Coffee mug, 'World's Greatest Dad'
Living life in the 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 realize
Hey, I gotta be clever now
Hey, I gotta go get it now
I take a look at the way that I'm living
Mistakes are better never made than forgiven, right, right
[Chorus]
Whoa, whoa, oh-oh, oh-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
[Verse 2]
Yeah, they say a real man's a family man
Pays the bills, has a travel plan, a caravan
The way it feels like everywhere that I am
Trouble follows till I unravel and crash the van
Always managing in damage control
Count my blessings like casualties and add up the toll
When matters resolve, I plan on getting back to my goals
But this life'll get away so grab on and hold
[Bridge]
When I'm away
This world leads me astray, everything starts breaking apart
So I'm spendin' my days
Tryna carve out a place to fill that empty space in my heart
[Verse 3]
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 doing my best
Uncertain if all the hurtin' is worth it
Yeah, I know I couldn't be further from perfect
[Chorus]
Whoa, whoa, oh-oh, oh-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
[Chorus]
Life can be so beautiful
But sometimes, I feel I make a mess of things
Life can be so beautiful
But sometimes, I feel 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 feel I make a mess of everything
[Outro]
I'm on my way home, Clark Griswold, here I go
