Well I've been from Boston to LA Seen Boulder Dam and Crystal Bay Been to New York City and Washington Saw Montreal and Saskatchewan, and Rhode Island And I've worked in three 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 throat Not to mention all the times that I've cut my fingers 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 (When the sun goes down) And my good ol' pappy when the blessing's said Filling up his plate with black eyed peas (With black eyed peas), mmm inside me And the great big hump of my dear sweet momma's hot buttered 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
