|
I think I know now what's making me sad |
|
It's a yearnin' for my own back yard |
|
I realize maybe I was wrong to leave |
|
Better swallow up my silly country pride |
|
Going home, running home |
|
Down to Gasoline Alley where I started from |
|
Going home, and I'm running home |
|
down to Gasoline Alley where I was born |
|
When the weather's better and the rails unfreeze |
|
and the wind don't whistle 'round my knees |
|
I'll put on my weddin' suit and catch the evening train |
|
I'll be home before the milk's upon the door |
|
Going home, running home |
|
down to Gasoline Alley where I started from |
|
Going home, and I'm running home |
|
down to Gasoline Alley where I was born |
|
But if anything should happen and my plans go wrong |
|
Should I stray to the house on the hill |
|
Let it be known that my intentions were good |
|
I'd be singing in my alley if I could |
|
And if I'm called away and it's my turn to go |
|
Should the blood run cold in my veins |
|
Just one favor I'll be asking of you |
|
Don't bury me here, it's too cold |
|
Take me back, carry me back |
|
Down to Gasoline Alley where I started from |
|
Take me back, won't you carry me home |
|
Down to Gasoline Alley where I started from |
|
Take me back, carry me back |
|
Down to Gasoline Alley where I started from |
|
Take me back, carry me back |
|
Down to Gasoline Alley where I started from |
|
Take me back, carry me back |
|
Down to Gasoline Alley where I started from |
