Makin' My Way Back Home |
| Makin' my way back home |
| It’s been the longest time |
| Not since I was a little child |
| Have I felt so good and fine |
| The easiest thing I’ve ever done |
| Like walking through an open door |
| All those things that held me down |
| Well they just don’t matter anymore |
| I wore pretty dresses and teased my hair |
| Sang my heart out in those songs |
| Good or bad, I done my best |
| You can’t tell me I was wrong |
| Makin' my way back home |
| It’s been the longest time |
| Not since I was a little child |
| Have I felt so good and fine |
| The easiest thing I’ve ever done |
| Like walking through an open door |
| All those things that held me down |
| Well they just don’t matter anymore |
| I see the shadows of my life |
| Cast upon the level land |
| Rosy lengthening of day |
| Finds my feet in native sand |
| Makin' my way back home |
| It’s been the longest time |
| Not since I was a little child |
| Have I felt so good and fine |
| The easiest thing I’ve ever done |
| Like walking through an open door |
| All those things that held me down |
| Well they just don’t matter anymore |
| All those things that held me down |
| Well they just don’t matter anymore |
