| From the railhead to the boatyard
|
| From the factory to the farm
|
| From the mine to the millyard
|
| I’ve weathered with storms.
|
| From the barroom to the bedpost
|
| I’ve wasted my days
|
| And all I have is my drink
|
| And the time left to think but the times slips away.
|
| Just look at my face
|
| When you tell me goodbye
|
| You can see what I’m after
|
| By the look in my eye.
|
| Just walk away and leave me alone
|
| 'Cause it’s a long way back home
|
| Long way back home.
