Don't it make you wanna go home now don't it make you wanna go home
|
All of God's children get weary when they roam
|
Don't it make you wanna go home don't it make you wanna go home
|
|
Oh the whippoorwills roost on the telephone poles the Georgia sun goes down
|
It's been a long time but I'm glad to say that I'm
|
Goin' back down to my hometown
|
Goin' down to the greyhound station gonna buy me a oneway fare
|
If the good Lord's willin' and the creeks don't rise tomorrow I will be right there
|
Don't it make you wanna go home now...

There's a six lane highway down by the creek where I went skinny dippin' as a child
|
And the driving show where the meadow used to grow
|
And the strawberries used to grow wild
|
There's a drugstrip down by the riverside where my grandma's cow used to grace
|
Now the grass don't grow and the river don't flow like it did in my childhood days
|
Don't it make you wanna go home now...
|
Don't it make you wanna go home now...
|
Don't it make you wanna go home now...
