Lyrics

well i've been
a traveler
most of my life
never took a home
never took a wife

ran away young and
decided to roam
i wanna see
my mama and
my daddy back home

home
where the
river runs cold
the water tastes good
the winters ain't cold

home
where the trees
grow tall
the home fires burn
the whippoorwills
call

i remember stories
that my daddy
used to tell
my eyes'd get big
his chest'd
really swell

i could sit for hours
and listen with glee
as he'd tell of how
he lived when
he's a boy like me

home
where the
river runs cold
the water tastes good
the winters ain't cold

home
where the
trees grow tall
the home fires burn
the whippoorwills
call

well mama
dear mama
do ya still
love your boy
after all my roamin'
can i still bring ya joy

mom sent a letter
got it not long ago
she said come home
i'm a-missin' ya so

home
where the
river runs cold
the water tastes good
the winters ain't cold

home
where the
trees grow tall
the home fires burn
the whippoorwills
call

whippoorwills call
whippoorwills call
whippoorwills call
