Wrong Direction Home |
In a shingle covered cottage at the foothills of blue stacks |
Near a mountain stream that’s flowing crystal clear |
Where the humming birds and honey bees feed on mama’s roses |
My mem’ries just grow sweeter with the years |
Mem’ries of my childhood are as sweet as mountain honey |
And as fresh as a dew on morning glory vines |
I grew up surrounded by the sights and sounds of nature |
And they’re forever present in my mind |
But i’m headed in the wrong direction home |
Headed in the wrong direction home |
There’s no place like home |
But i’m headed in the wrong direction home |
Teardrops mingled with the summer rain that was a falling |
The day i left my mountain home behind |
With a suitcase in my hand and a hope in my heart |
I was following a dream i had to find |
In that shingled covered cottage at the foothills of the smokies |
Waits a family hat i’m longing to see |
And mountain streams and fields of green |
And rolling hills stay in my dreams |
But i’m many, many miles from tennessee |
And still headed in the wrong direction home |
Headed in the wrong direction home |
But maybe i’ll get back before too long |
But i’m headed in the wrong direction home |
