Lyrics Going Home - Georgie Fame

Going Home

Caught the nine-o-clock train from Norfolk
In Virginia
Gonna go back
Gonna go back
Gonna go back
Gonna go back
To see the pretty girl that I left behind
See the dirty clothes on the washing line
See the little tree that I planted there
So many years ago
I’m going home to mama’s home cooking
And all you can’t replace, you can’t replace
Caught the six-o-clock flight from Columbus
In Ohio
Gonna get there
Gonna get there
Gonna get there
Gonna get there
Gonna get a breath of that country air
I’m gonna go to church
Gonna say my prayers
Listen to the gossip in the village square
Did you hear about Mary May
I’m going home to mama’s home cooking
An' all you can’t replace, you can’t replace
Caught the two-o-clock bus from Lincoln
In Nebraska
I’m gonna make it
I’m gonna make it
I’m gonna make it
I’m gonna make it
Gonna make up for those bitter years
I never had a chance to dry my tears
I never wanna be in love again
I never wanna feel so cold
No I’m going home to mama’s home cooking
And all you can’t replace, you can’t replace
I’m going home to mama’s home cookin'
I’m going home to mama’s home cookin'
I’m going home to mama’s home cookin'
I’m going home to mama’s home cookin'
I’m going home to mama’s home cookin'
