Wish I Hadn't Stayed Away So Long Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I wish I hadn't stayed away so long
I wish I hadn't stayed away so long
Bell rang on the midnight train
Carrying a hobo's home
And I wish I hadn't stayed away so long

[Verse 2]
My mother died when I was on the road
My mother died when I was on the road
Bell rang on the midnight train
Carrying a hobo's home
My mother died when I was on the road
(I wish I hadn't stayed away so long)

[Chorus]
I wish I hadn't stayed away so long
I wish I hadn't stayed away so long
Bell rang on the midnight train
Carrying a hobo's home
And I wish I hadn't stayed away so long

[Verse 3]
I got home too late to say goodbye
I got home too late to say goodbye
Bell rang on the midnight train
Carrying a hobo's home
I got home too late to say goodbye

[Chorus] And I wish I hadn't stayed away so long
I wish I hadn't stayed away so long
Bell rang on the midnight train
Carrying a hobo's home
I wish I hadn't stayed away so long

[Solo]

[Verse 4]
I can't count the times I stole away and cried
I can't count the times I stole away and cried
Bell rang on the midnight train
Carrying a hobo's home
I can't count the times I stole away and cried

[Chorus]
And I wish I hadn't stayed away so long
I wish I hadn't stayed away so long
Bell rang on the midnight train
Carrying a hobo's home
I wish I hadn't stayed away so long

[Chorus]
And I wish I hadn't stayed away so long
I wish I hadn't stayed away so long
Bell rang on the midnight train
Carrying a hobo's home
I wish I hadn't stayed away so long
