homebound train lyrics

When I was just a boy
The devil took my hand
Took me from my home, home, home
Made me a man

We don't talk too late
About sympathy, now
'Cause you can't dance
If you take a chance on your rosary now

I'm going down, down, down, down, down
On that homebound train

Been a million years
That I've been gone
I been everywhere
Now I'm headin' home

Met a lot of girls
But there's a woman I know
Said, "Don't take no plane
Better take a train
'Cause I like it real slow"

All the way back home
On a homebound train
I'm going down, down, down, down, down
On that homebound train

I'm on my way, dear
I'm headin' home
With my baby
Where I belong

Coming down the track now
See, I done my time
I'm going back now
To that home of mine

Well, here I come, baby
Here I come, baby
Here I come, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby

All the way back home
On that homebound train
I'm going down, down, down, down, down
Yes I am, on that homebound train
