Lyrics Luther Allison

Luther Allison

Cancel My Check

Well, I'm comin' back home

Where I belong

I'm comin' back a-home

Where I belong

Yes, I'm comin' back home

And get my friends I've left behind

I see ain't no great change

People standin' on the corner like they used to

Yeah, things ain't changed

People standin' on the corner like they used to

Well, I'm comin' back home

Where everybody's got the blues

The first thing I'm gonna do

Goin' down to the welfare shop

The first thing I'm gonna do

I'm goin' down to the welfare shop

I'm gonna have them to cancel my check

I still ain't got a job

Ooh-yeah

Comin' home

Pack your bag

We're gettin' outta here

Forget about the past

We got a future out there, baby

This could have our last chance

No more hard

No more poverty

I'll get a better place

Where everybody's free

We could be proud

Of our brand new community

Ooh-ooh-yeah

It's alright

It's alright

In the community, tonight

Be proud

Be proud of our new community

Come on, now

Comin' home

Comin' home

Comin' home, people

Gotta get home, yeah

Oooh-yeah

I wanna move, ya'all

Come on now, play it

Well, ooh-ooh-yeah

Just gotta get ahead

Can't do it all by myself, no

I'm proud to be movin'

In the new community

Yeah
