Well I left home at a crack of dawn just about a year agoI thumbed my way cross the USA and I learned a lot I didn't knowThe Promised Land that I thought I'd find was always just ahead of meUntil one day when I realized I left it back in TennesseeAnd that's why I'm going back to my Tennessee girl and a Tennessee way of lifeAnd I'm gonna ask my Tennessee girl to be my Tennessee wifeTonight I slept in a hobo camp workin' out like dog by dayI never got enough to get ahead just enough to make my wayCold and tired when the evening come all I had to ease my mindWas thinkin' bout the place I started from and the girl that I left behindAnd that's why I'm going back...There ain't no place that I been at all that I would gonna settle inAnd every town that I travel through made me want to go home againThe green green grass and the rollin' hills seem to keep a callin' meBack to the place where I was born and the girl that I long to seeAnd that's why I'm going back...I'm going back...
