Joe Diffie - Home Lyrics
The only the thing I see ahead isJust the heat a rising off the roadThe rainbows I've been chasing keep on fading before I find my pot of goldBut more and more I'm thinking, that the only treasures that I'll ever knowAre long ago and far behind and wrapped up in my memories of homeHome was a swimming hole and a fishing pole and the feel of a muddy row between my toesHome was a back porch swing where I would sit and mom would sing amazing graceWhile she hung out the clothes,Home was an easy chair with my daddy there and the smell of Sunday supper on the stoveMy footsteps carry me away but in my mind I'm always going homeNow the miles I put behind me ain't as hard as the miles that lay aheadAnd its much to late to listen to the words of wisdom that my daddy saidThe straight and narrow path he showed me turned into a thousand winding roads,My footsteps carry me away, but in my mind I'm always going home.Home was a swimming hole and a fishing pole and the feel of a muddy row between my toesHome was a back porch swing where I would sit and mom would sing amazing graceWhile she hung out the clothes,Home was an easy chair with my daddy there and the smell of Sunday supper on the stoveMy footsteps carry me away but in my mind I'm always going homeYeah, the straight and narrow path he showed me turned into a thousand winding roads,My footsteps carry me away, but in my mind I'm always going home.
