Going to My Home Town

Mama's in the kitchen baking up a pie.

Daddy's in the backyard, "Get a job, son,

You know you ought to try".

I packed up my bag, I headed down the road,

I got me a job from Henry Ford.

But I made a mistake, I moved much too far

And now I know what the lonesome blues are...

I`m getting lonesome, I'm getting blue,

I need someone to talk to.

I`m getting lonesome, I'm getting blue,

Let me tell you where I'm going to...

Yes I'm going to my home town,

I don't care ever even if I have to walk.

Yes I'm going to my home town,

I don't care even if I have to walk.

I gotta move on now baby, I got no more time left to talk.

Yes I'm going to my home town,

Sorry but I can't take you.

Yes I'm going to my home town,

Sorry but I can't take you.

Only got one ticket, you know I just can't afford two.

Take me home.

The day I left,

You know the rain was pouring down.

The day I left,

You know the rain was pouring down.

I'm going home again baby,

I believe the sun's gonna come on out.

Let's go home, boy, let's go home.

Yes I'm going to my home town,

You know baby I gotta go.

Going to my home town,

You know I just have to go.

I really love you, woman,

I'll see you in a year, maybe no, maybe yes.

Going to my home town,

I'm going to my home town,

Going to my home town,

Going to my home town.
