Mel Tillis "Don't It Make You Want to Go Home" |
(Joe South) Don't it make you wanna go home now Don't it make you wanna go home All God's children get weary when they roam Don't it make you wanna go home Don't it make you wanna go home. Oh the whippoorwill roost on the telephone poles And the Georgia sun goes down Well it's been a long time but I'm glad to say that I'm Goin' back down to my hometown. Goin' down to the greyhound station Gonna buy me a oneway fare Good Lord's willin' and the creeks don't rise But tomorrow I'll be right there. Don't it make you wanna go home now Don't it make you wanna go home All God's children get weary when they roam Don't it make you wanna go home Don't it make you wanna go home. There's a six lane highway down by the creek Where I went skinny dippin' as a child And the driving show where the meadow used to grow And the strawberries used to grow wild. There's a drugstrip down by the riverside Where my grandma's cow used to grace Now the grass don't grow and the river don't flow Like it did in my childhood days. Don't it make you wanna go home now Don't it make you wanna go home All God's children get weary when they roam Don't it make you wanna go home Don't it make you wanna go home. Don't it make you wanna go home now Don't it make you wanna go home All God's children get weary when they roam Don't it make you wanna go home Don't it make you wanna go home. Don't it make you wanna go home now Don't it make you wanna go home All God's children get weary when they roam Don't it make you wanna go home Don't it make you wanna go home...
