Hometown

(album: There's The Rub - 1974)

I have traveled the line,
Held many hands on short holidays,
Made a lot of noise
In the strangest places far away.

Only for a day or two at a time,
I've been moving with the wind
On my side,
That puts me free and easy in my hometown.

I said I'd stay alive
I guess I didn't tell a lie.
I told you I'd come back again
And I'll say the same again next time.

I've been living for a day at a time
Moving with the wind on my side.

You don't know how good it feels
I know I'll never want to go away.
You don't know how good it feels
To be with you again
I know I'm coming home to stay.

I'm saying, it's nice to be back home
Among my friends.
It means a lot to me
And your love
It never ends.
