One suitcase a heartache and a roadmap I'm headin' east just out of San Antone
|
Comin' my way home to West Virginia they're wonderin' why I stayed away so long
|
Got a letter from mama in my pocket she wrote to tell me dad had done passed all
|
One suitcase a heartache and a roadmap a lonely man just thumbin' my way home
|
Thumbin' my way home to West Virginia a broken heart inside a lonesome man
|
Maybe I can help to ease mom's heartaches and I'll try to help her understand
|
Gonna take the job that dad left in the coalmines
|
And stay with mom so she won't belong
|
I'll make up for ten long years of roamin' that's why I'm thumbin' my way home
|
Yes that's why I'm thumbin' my way home
|

Thumbin' My Way Home
