Don T It Make You Want To Go Home lyrics

Don`t it make you wanna go home now don`t it make you wanna go home
All of 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 whippoorwills roost on the telephone poles the Georgia sun goes down
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
If the good Lord`s willin` and the creeks don`t rise tomorrow I will be right there
Don`t it make you wanna go home now...
[ guitar ]
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 now...
Don`t it make you wanna go home now...
