Intro: (spoken) Going back home. Hadn't been home in a long time. The old home place, it just don't look the same to me There's a filling station where the high school used to be And I'm hoping that the folks will remember me Now I'm home, now I'm home Front porch of her house has just begun to sag Every letter that she wrote is right here in my bag When I told the boys about her, I began to brag Now I'm home, now I'm home Home, home, home, home, home Bridge: Something is dreadfully wrong, oh it seems The house is boarded up, there's cobwebs hanging from the screens I think I hear the neighbours saying, "Just last week She ran away, with a man from Tennessee, to make a home" INTERLUDE: (same as Verse) Pa pa pa pa etc., etc. Pa pa pa pa etc., etc. Pa pa pa pa etc., etc. Pa pa pa pa etc., etc. Instrumental:
