Home for a Rest Lyrics – Spirit of the West
Singer: Spirit of the West
Title: Home for a Rest
You’ll have to excuse me, I’m not at my best
I’ve been gone for a month, I’ve been drunk since I left
These so called vacations will soon be my death
I’m so sick from the drink, I need home for a rest
We arrived in December and London was cold
We stayed in the bars along Charing Cross Road
We never saw nothin’ but brass taps and oak
Kept a shine on the bar with the sleeves of our coats
You’ll have to excuse me, I’m not at my best
I’ve been gone for a week, I’ve been drunk since I left
And these so called vacations will soon be my death
I’m so sick from the drink, I need home for a rest
Take me home
Euston Station, the train journey north
In the buffet car we lurched back and forth
Past old crooked dikes, through Yorkshire’s green fields
We were flung into dance as the train jigged and reeled
You’ll have to excuse me, I’m not at my best
I’ve been gone for a week, I’ve been drunk since I left
And these so called vacations will soon be my death
I’m so sick from the drink, I need home for a rest
Take me home
By the light of the moon she’d drift through the streets
A rare old perfume so seductive and sweet
She’d tease us and flirt as the pubs all closed down
Then walk us on home and deny us a round
You’ll have to excuse me, I’m not at my best
I’ve been gone for a month, I’ve been drunk since I left
These so called vacations will soon be my death
I’m so sick from the drink, I need home for a rest
Take me home
The gas heater’s empty, it’s damp as a tomb
The spirits we drank are now ghosts in the room
I’m knackered again, come on sleep take me soon
And don’t lift up my head ’til the twelve bells of noon
You’ll have to excuse me, I’m not at my best
I’ve been gone for a month, I’ve been drunk since I left
And these so called vacations will soon be my death
I’m so sick from the drink, I need home for a rest
Take me home
