Discover the story of the song > Wherever I Lay My Hat – Paul Young

The protagonist is a man who always moves around and never stays in one place for too long. His partner seems upset and he thinks it's because she's upset over him leaving. He explains that he's not worth her tears because he's always on the run and breaks the hearts of the women he meets. He tells her that wherever he lays his hat, that's his home and he likes it that way.
