Front Porch   (Music - Iannicello, Lyrics - Ed McGee)

Five miles home
Five miles back
Chewin’ on the straw
That broke the camel’s back
Boots worn thin
Sun burnt back
Ain’t got the strength
to have a heart attack

But she calls me out, says
‘poor boy come to me’
and she steals every last
shred of shame from me
so this beat up broke down
poor boy walks the lane
but damned if every step I take
ain’t a step toward sayin’

[Chorus]:
When ya gonna come down
From your high throne in fly town?
The poor boy on the front porch
Ain’t no damn fool hound
When ya gonna come down ?
You ain’t the only one I seen around
The poor boy on the front porch
Might just mosey downtown

Five miles home
Five miles back
End of my rope
Ties up my pack
Faith worn thin
Sky turned black
My heart still beats
But bleeds from the cracks 

[Chorus]

Five miles home
Ain't goin' back
Got nothing left
But my bags are packed
Luck worn thin
The odds are stacked
But a broke heart mends
That's a natural fact

And she calls me out, says
'poor boy come to me now'
but she done stole every last
shred of shame from me
so this fed up beat down
poor boy walks away
and damned if this ain't the final time
that woman gonna hear me say

[Chorus]
