Lyrics of Goin' home

The closer i get to my home, lord
The more i wanna be there
There'll be a gatherin' of loved ones and friends
Lord, you know i wanna be there

There'll be a mixture of teardrops and flowers
Crying and talking for hours
'bout how wild that i was
And if i'd listened to them, i wouldn't be there

Well, there's old charlie toll
They threw away the mold when they made him
And jimmy mccline
It looks like the wine's finally laid him

And billie mcrae
That i could any day in a card game
And bessie mcneal
But her tears are real, i can see pain

There's a mixture of teardrops and flowers
Crying and talking for hours
'bout how wild that i was
And if i'd listened to them, i wouldn't be there

Lord, thanks for the ride
I got a feeling inside that i know you
And if you see your way, you're welcome to stay
'cause i'm gonna need you

There's a mixture of teardrops and flowers
Crying and talking for hours
'bout how wild that i was
And if i'd listened to them, i wouldn't be there
