Packing my suitcase, tan boots Slip out the back door and nothing to loose Full moon rising out on the road Ain't carrying nothing but the heavy load
Turn in lose of the ties that bind Feeling turmol in my mind But I can't look back, these times are gone I know, I can't go back home
My grand-daddy he left his things He stands tall but he's kinda bent His hands are warm But they are strong Takes care of his place, he lives alone
Now I'm sure he wonders what's happen to me He's keeping it real, I'm living a dream He checks the cows, Lord, he's up at dawn But I know I can't go back home
There was a storm the other night Had to talk to God, try to set things right Church door was locked, Lord, I stood in the rain Waiting for and answer But it never came
I believe in living, give it all I got I'm strong enough to except all that A little piece of daylight, time to move on It's just a reminder, I can't go back home
Just a reminder I can't go back home
Just a reminder I can't go back home I can't go back home No going home Can't go back home.
