Don't It Make You Want To Go Home
Jack And Misty
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 whipporwhills roost on the telephone poles
When the Georgia sun goes down
Well, it's been a long time, but I'm glad to say that I'm
Going back down to my home town
Goin' down to the Greyhound station
Gonna buy us a one way fare
Good Lord willin' and the creek don't rise
Tomorrow we'll be right there
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
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 cows used to graze
But the grass don't grow and the river don't flow
Like it did in our childhood days
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
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
And God, how I want to go home
Don't it make you want to go home
