Go Back Home 03:46
Road I been walking down is a thousand miles long Every mile tells me my path went wrong So now let this turn out right Get back to what I left I wanna I wanna go back, Go back home This ship I’m sailing on the waves don’t rise, they fall And with every wave, I hear the past recall So now let this turn out right Get back to what I left I wanna I wanna go back, Go back home This life I’m living now, have to change it all I know This prodigal son has been laid too low, too low But can I go back Have friends forgiven my loans Has the one I loved been in black Will I be welcomed when I go back home But can I go back Have friends forgiven my loans Has the one I loved been in black Will I be welcomed Can I go back home This train I’m riding on, is thirteen coaches long Mystery train, promise me my city’s not gone. So now let this turn out right Get back to what I left I wanna I wanna go back, I wanna now Go back home
