Back home
You'll see those ruby berries shine
Tip your head back
Drink that summer wine

Sister, brother, tell dad and mom
Not to worry, it won't be too long
'Cause I'm on my way
I'm on my way
I'm on my way

Back home
You'll hear no ring of no telephone
Just put your feet up
Make yourself at home

Hm, sister, brother, tell dad and mom
Not to worry, it won't be too long
'Cause I'm on my way
I'm on my way
I'm on my way

Oh, and I'm leavin' the city
This time it's for good
Oh, and my baby's so pretty
If you like her, like her, like her
I'll stay for good

Hm, sister, brother, tell dad and mom
Not to worry, it won't be too long
'Cause I'm on my way
I'm on my way
I'm on my way

Well, back home
You'll feel that country feel all the time, yeah
And when that cock crows
You'll really want to rise and shine

Hm, sister, brother, tell dad and mom
Not to worry, it won't be too long
'Cause I'm on my way
I'm on my way
I'm on my way
