Don't It Make You Want To Go Home |
Don’t it make you want to go home now |
Don’t it make you want to go home |
All God’s children get weary when they roam |
Don’t it make you want to go home |
Don’t it make you want to go home |
(verse 1): |
Oh the whipporwill roosts on the telephone pole |
when the Georgia sun goes down |
Well it’s been a long time but I’m glad to say that I’m |
goin' back down to my home town |
Goin' down to the Greyhound station |
Gonna buy me a one way fare |
Good lord willin' and the creeks don’t rise |
By tomorrow I’ll be right there |
(chorus) |
(verse 2): |
But there’s a six-lane highway down by the creek |
Where I went skinny dippin' as a child |
And a drive-in show where the meadow used to grow |
And the strawberries used to grow wild |
There’s a drag strip down by the riverside |
Where my grandma’s cow used to graze |
Now the grass don’t grow and the river don’t flow |
Like it did in my childhood days |
(chorus) |
