Don't It Make You Wanna Go Home - The Kentucky Headhunters

Don’t it make you want to go home now

Don’t it make you want to go home

All God’s children get weary when they roam

Don’t it make you want to go home

Don’t it make you want to go home

Oh the whipporwill roosts on the telephone pole

when the Georgia sun goes down

Well it’s been a long time but I’m glad to say that I’m

goin' back down to my home town

Goin' down to the Greyhound station

Gonna buy me a one way fare

Good lord willin' and the creeks don’t rise

By tomorrow I’ll be right there

But there’s a six-lane highway down by the creek

Where I went skinny dippin' as a child

And a drive-in show where the meadow used to grow

And the strawberries used to grow wild

There’s a drag strip down by the riverside

Where my grandma’s cow used to graze

Now the grass don’t grow and the river don’t flow

Like it did in my childhood days
