"I'm Goin' Home" lyrics

"I'm Goin' Home"

Loneliness, well, I got plenty
My pockets they are full of empty
I got nothing of my own
I'm up here all alone

And it's a long, long way
But I'm goin' home

I came to town to find my trade
I thought my fortune to be made
But there's nothing here for me
I'm lonesome as can be

And it's a long, long way
But I'm goin' home

I know I ain't gonna be missed
'Cause I'm just a number on someone's list
If I get sick, and I die
There won't be no one here to cry

They can have their fortune and their fame
I'm goin' back where they know my name
My walkin' shoes are beat
I'll soon be on my feet

And it's a long, long way
But I'm goin' home

They can have their fortune and their fame
I'm goin' back where they know my name
My walkin' shoes are beat
I'll soon be on my feet

And it's a long, long way
But I'm goin' home
It's a long, long way
But I'm goin' home
