The Temptations - Wherever I Lay My Hat (That's My Home) lyrics

By the look in your eye
I can tell you're going to cry
Is it over me?
If it is
Save your tears for I'm not worth it, you see

For I'm the type of boy who is always on the roam
Wherever I lay my hat
That's my home
I'm telling you that's my home

You had romance
Did you break it by chance over me?
If it's so
I'd like for you to know that I'm not worth it, you see

For I'm the type of boy who is always on the roam
Mhm, wherever I lay my hat
That's my home
Mhm, that's my home

Oh, you keep telling me
You keep telling me I'm your man
What do I have to do to make you understand?

For I'm the type of guy who gives girl the eye
Everybody knows
But I love them and I leave them
Break their hearts and deceive them everywhere I go

Don't you know that I'm the type of man who is always on the roam?
Wherever I lay my hat that's my home
Wherever I lay my hat
Oh oh, that's my home
Mhm, yeah
That's my home and I like it that way
