words and music by |
|
Arlo Guthrie |
|
Not so long ago |
|
I set out on this road |
|
With my friends and my companions by my side |
|
And I think of you wherever |
|
I do go I'm a rambler, |
|
I ain't hard to satisfy. |
|
CHORUS: Won't be long till |
|
I am home again with you |
|
Just a few more miles to go |
|
Won't be long till |
|
I can get back on my own |
|
Won't be long till |
|
I can spend my time with you |
|
In the airport |
|
I'm standing in a line |
|
Search my pockets, check me out and |
|
I'm alright |
|
It's not hard but it ain't easy all the time |
|
To be in some other town most every night |
|
CHORUS Oh, |
|
I miss the singing from porch banjo nights |
|
And when friends come by to pass the time away |
|
And when the winds that chill the |
|
Bershires in the night |
|
Heading east through |
|
Massachusetts toward the bay. |
