Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Julia just wants to go home
This is what I got from that YouTube video. Obviously incomplete and incorrect.

Ellipses (...) are where I could not make out entire words. Question marks in braces [?] are where the words I made out are ... not obviously right.

Tania Just Wants to Go Home

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q6b3WrHB49g

They're peeling the labels, puttin' chairs on the table
   Tania just wants to go home
Pickin' up glasses and knockin' back passes
   Tania just wants to go home
The bottle shop's shuttered, on thousands of rounds
A [... night? candy land?] band in this smoky old town
It's a Sunday night on a holy [?] ground [?]
   Tania just wants to go home

The accordion player was always a stayer [?]
   Tania just wants to go home
Tommy's [?] old man in her old panel van
   Tania just wants to go home
It's been too long a weekend, too many VDs (that's "Victoria District")
Too many cowboys, too many CDs (that's "Common Ground")
Somebody order a taxicab please
   Tania just wants to go home

-- CHORUS --
Tania just wants to go
Out the door, down the road
Tania just wants to go home
Tania just wants to go
More than you'll ever know
Tania just wants to go home

They pull out the tin from yesterday's bringin' [?]
   Tania just wants to go home
Tired of the grins on our busy old faces
   Tania just wants to go home
A warm bath is waiting, a book by the bed
Tania's got room for one thought in her head
Tall, dark, and handsome, her heart [?] goes [?] to [?] bed [?]
   Tania just wants to go home

-- CHORUS --

They're peeling the labels, puttin' chairs on the table
   Tania just wants to go home
Pickin' up glasses and knockin' back passes
   Tania just wants to go home
The bottle shop's shuttered, on thousands of rounds
A [... night? candy land?] band in this smoky old town
It's a Sunday night on a holy [?] ground [?]
   Tania just wants to go home
