Gene Watson – Got No Reason Now for Goin’ Home lyrics
Got no reason now for goin’ home
All my reason’s now she is gone
Got no one there to talk to
And even though I know I ought to
Got no reason now for goin’ home
Once I had ev’ry reason a man could want
For goin’ home and makin’ love, but now I don’t
So I end up in here each night sittin’ and a-thinkin’
Missin’ her, hurtin’ so and drinkin’
Got no reason now for goin’ home
All my reason’s now she is gone
Got no one there to talk to
And even though I know I ought to
Got no reason now for goin’ home
— Instrumental —
It’s so hard now just knowin’ there’s another
That she’s out with him knowin’ that I love her
So I end up in here each night sittin’ and a-thinkin’
Missin’ her, hatin’ him and drinkin’
Got no reason now for goin’ home
All my reason’s now she is gone
Got no one there to talk to
And even though I know I ought to
Got no reason now for goin’ home…
