Oh my soul craves to go home
|
to long island shores again
|
take me back to old north Walk?
|
to breathe in the harbor wind.
|
|
[CHORUS]
|
I'll be leaving Tennessee on the first plane
|
Sunday gone to my family reunion
|
There my father preached at the church
|
On the corner of Old Nickels Road
|
He raised four children in a green house
|
We are all well and now we are all grown
|
|
[CHORUS]
|
|
There my mother Sharron lies deep in the earth of the long island shores
|
I will visit her grave and plant yellow roses at her stone
|
|
[CHORUS]
|
|
I'll be leaving Tennessee on the first plane
|
Sunday gone to my family reunion
|
I'll be leaving
|
Gone to my family reunion
|
Oh my soul craves to go home.
