Lyrics
Going Home
250 miles from Contrition to Have-A-Hope City
It's not a journey of pity,
It's where I belong
Driving me a hi-way I'm skipping me a by-way to save time
Cos time is what's on my mind,
Just tired of going wrong
'Cos honesty is now my aim
And I hear it call my name
I'm tired of playing the game
This is now me
And I'm going home, for the last time
I'm going home, and I'm planning to stay
Yes, I'm going home, and I feel fine
I'm just weary of the oats I've sown
I'm going home
126 long years since my shadow was seen in the city
Amongst the nitty gritty,
Where I breathed my first
Midtown, uptown, downtown, I can't wait to see them
I can't wait to feel them,
They can do me their worst
And I'm going home, for the last time
