DOLLY PARTON

- Back Home Lyrics

Back home, back home
Yes, I'm going back home
Why I can't believe it's been this long
Since I've seen mom and dad
When I left my mountain home behind
I left them both so sad
My brothers and my sisters that were babies then are
grown
Years have past and now at last, I'm on my way back
home

Back home, back home
Yes I'm going back home
To the factory smoke and city life, I'm sayin' so long
I've shed a lot of tears through all the years that
I've been gone
And I've spent a lot of time a' wishin' I could go back
home

I got a letter from mama an'
Mama asked me if I'd come back home
She says it sure is lonesome now
Since all of us kids are all growed up and gone
I just can't hardly stand the thoughts of
Momma and daddy being left there all alone
That's really all I need to know
And now I'm on the road back home

Back home, back home
Yes, I'm going back home
To the smog an' smoke an' city life, I'm sayin' so long
I've shed a lot of tears through all the years that
I've been gone
And I've spent a lot of time a' wishin' I could go back
home

Back home, back home
Yes, I'm going back home
