How’d You Get Home So Soon

Tom T. Hall

It was Memorial Day in '81
I left the city and I drove back home
I stopped by the grave of a childhood friend
And as I stood there I talked
To him and I said
How'd you get home so soon Bill
I knew you way back then
We were pals back in those days
Much too young to have friends
I left town bout when you did
I've been makin' up tunes
Ain't it strange how they play this game
How'd you get home so soon
How'd you get home so soon Bill
I knew you had to ask
She married some guy from Dayton left
And she never came back
To tell you the truth I liked her
But boy that's been many a moon
I'm still playing games on the same old
Range how'd you get home so soon
I did some time in the Army but
You don't wanna hear about that
Made easy money the hard way it all
Goes for toys and for tax
Whiskey tastes better than ever the
Ladies they look better too
Well Bill I'm down I'll see you around
How'd you get home so soon
