(words & music by Michael Jarrett)
|
On the hills of Georgia
|
Across the plains of Tennessee
|
I've seen and I've done most everything
|
That a man can do or see
|
But if I could only borrow one dream from your sleep
|
I'd be on that train tomorrow
|
I'll be home on Christmas day
|
|
And so many times before
|
She left that candle burning
|
Oh, too many tears fell
|
My soul fills with yearning
|
If I had sense at all
|
I'd just be on my way
|
Be on that train tomorrow
|
Be home on Christmas day
|
|
Everytime I think about her
|
All the love I left behind
|
Memories still linger in my troubled mind
|
I could set aside my pride
|
And I'd be on my way
|
I'd catch that train tomorrow
|
And be home on Christmas day
|
|
If I had any sense at all
|
I'd just be on my way
|
I'd catch that train tomorrow
|
I'd be home on Christmas day
|
I said I'd catch that train tomorrow
|
I'd be home on Christmas day
|
