Homesick Boy

(album: George Thorogood And The Destroyers - 1977)

Well, I'm a homsick boy
Been away from home too long
I'm a homesick boy
Been away from home too long
Ever since I left, things been going down wrong

My guitar is my partner,
And the highway is my friend
My guitar is my partner
And the highway is my friend
If I could make it back baby, this loneliness will end

I was a fool for leaving but I guess this will be my fate
I was a fool for leaving but I guess this will be my fate
You never know how good you've got it, til it's much too late

I like 90 proof whiskey, 14 carat gold
I like 90 proof whiskey, 14 carat gold
But I need a hunderd proof woman to satisfy my lonesome soul
Yes I do

I'm a homesick boy
Been away from home too long
I'm a homesick boy
Been away from home too long
Ever since I left, things been going down wrong
Woo
