Lyrics Ferlin Husky

Ferlin Husky

Migrant

I know that your weed fields need working

And there's just time before the rain starts to fall

But I cannot stay for the harvest

Cause tonight I'm headin' down south goodbye I'll see you all

I hear there's a while line a hirin' hands out in Texas

So I guess I'll go and brush a well or two

Can you wait until I'm makin' up to get us through the winter

For the days are short and cold and work is scarce

Mhm the fragnance of your hair is in each meadow

And your smile has touched the wind

And as I work my way closer to you it feels so good to be close to home again

When the leaves fall from the trees look out your window oh yeah

And you'll see me coming up the road

Run as fast as you can out to meet me

And throw your arms around me baby cause baby I'm home

I finally got back home home sweet home it's too good to be back home
