When I was just a boy |
|
The devil took my hand |
|
Took me from my home |
|
He made me a man |
|
So, don't talk to me about sympathy now |
|
Cause you can't dance if you |
|
Take a chance on your rosary |
|
I'm going down, down, down, down, down |
|
On the homebound train |
|
It's been a millions years |
|
That I been gone |
|
I been everywhere, now I'm heading home |
|
Been a lot of girls, but |
|
There's a woman I know |
|
Said don't take no plane |
|
Better take a train |
|
Cause I like it real slow |
|
All the way back home |
|
On the homebound train |
|
I'm going down, down, down, down, down |
|
On the homebound train |
|
I'm on my way |
|
I'm heading home |
|
To be with my baby |
|
Where I belong |
|
Coming down the tracks now |
|
See, I done my time |
|
I'm going back now |
|
To that home of mine |
|
Well, here I come baby |
|
Here I come baby |
|
Here I come baby |
|
All the way back home |
|
On that homebound train |
|
I'm going down, down, down, down, down |
|
On that homebound train |
