Well I've been from Boston to LA
Seen Boulder Dam and Crystal Bay
Been to New York City and Washington
Saw Montreal and Sasquatchian and Rhode Island
And I've worked in 3 all night service stations and drove a truck
Take me home my heart is heavy and feet are sore
Take me home I don't wanna roam no more
Well I slept all night in a water trough
Had the flu and croup and the whooping cough
Had the mumps and the measles and the seven year itch
And I can't count the times that I've had a cold and sore throats
Not to mention all the times I've cut my finger on sardine can
Take me home my heart is heavy and feet are sore
Take me home I don't wanna roam no more
Well I can see 'em all now just a gathering round
Momma's supper table when the sun goes down
And my good ol' pappy when the blessing's said
Filling up his plate with black eyed peas mmm inside me
And the great big hump on my dear sweet momma's hot b***ered cornbread
Take me home my heart is heavy and feet are sore
Take me home I don't wanna roam no more
Take me home
