I'm full of pride and my heart feels good
|
Got news from my fam'ly up in the woods
|
At last I can go back where I belong
|
Sweated it all out for nine long years
|
Couldn't believe the voice in my ears
|
When the man saying "No hiding,son"
|
|
So I left the only folks I had known
|
I was fifteen then, hardly grown
|
When they found me in the swamp face down in the mud
|
Couldn't get back and I couldn't go far
|
Said to myself stay right where you are
|
Done found yourself a Ma and Pa
|
Ev'rybody said the kid's no good
|
|
Come home Johnny Bride come home
|
Johnny Bride come home
|
We're all wrong without you
|
How did we ever doubt you
|
He confessed to the killing
|
It's his role we had you filling
|
We didn't really mean to make you sad
|
But when you ran you made us think that you were twice as bad
|
|
I left the only folks I had known
|
I was fifteen then, hardly grown
|
When they found me in the swamp face down in the mud
|
Couldn't get back and I couldn't go far
|
Said to myself stay right where you are
|
Done found yourself a Ma and Pa
|
Ev'rybody said the kid's no good
|
|
Come Home Johnny Bride come home
|
Johnny Bride come home
|
We're all wrong without you
|
How did we ever doubt you
|
He confessed to the killing
|
It's his role we had you filling
|
We didn't really mean to make you sad
|
But when you ran you made us think that you were twice as bad
