Band Quotes

Jack White: "Yeah, this is a very old song. I wrote this about five years ago. I never just had a chance to record it really, and I just felt like the time was right. I hope I've nailed it, but I don't know. Maybe it needed to wait longer, I don't know."

Lyrics


You've got her in your pocket 
And there's no way out now 
Put it in the safe and lock it 
'cause it's at home sweet home 
Nobody ever told you that it was the wrong way 
To trick a woman, make her feel she did it her way 
And you'll be there if she ever feels blue 
And you'll be there when she finds someone new 
What to do 
Well you know 
You keep her in your pocket 
Where there's no way out now 
Put it in a safe a lock it 
'cause it's home sweet home 
The smile on your face made her think she had the right one 
Then she thought she was sure 
By the way you two could have fun 
But now she might leave 
Like she's threatened before 
Grab hold of her fast 
Before her feet leave the floor 
And she's out the door 
'cause you want 
To keep you in my pocket 
Where there's no way out now 
Put it in a safe a lock it 
'cause it's home sweet home 
And in your own mind 
You know you're lucky just to know her 
And in the beginning all you wanted was to show her 
But now you're scared 
You think she's running away 
You search in your hand for something clever to say 
Don't go away 
'cause I want 
To keep you in my pocket 
Where there's no way out 
Put it in a safe a lock it 
'cause it's home sweet home 
Home sweet home
