Take Me Home
I wanna feel that ocean breeze
That's got me wrapped around it's fingers
I wanna hear a southern drawl
And taste every word that lingers
I need a Sunday morning song
By a just-got baptized singer
I've been away too long
Somebody take me home
I need a glass of sweet sun tea
Brewed out in the backyard
I wanna see a kudzu vine
Sneaking up on a junk car
I need to sit on my old back porch
'Til the world lets go of my arm
I've been away too long, oh
Somebody take me home
Lord, have mercy on a poor boy's soul
Crank it up and make these big wheels roll
Can you get me there by the morning light?
And make everything alright
'Cause I've been away too long, oh
Somebody take me home
I love this job, I do
But my soul is wearing thin, oh
I gotta get lost in where I'm from
And find myself again, oh
I've been away too long
Won't somebody take me home, oh
I wanna waste a day with my little man
Throwing me that old football
Spend some time with Daddy's girls
Catching up on what's going on
Then remind the woman I love
Just how I miss her when I'm gone
Oh, Lord, have mercy on a poor boy's soul (boy's soul)
Crank it up and make these big wheels roll
Can you get me there by morning light?
Oh, Lord, have mercy on my soul
Crank it up and make these big wheels rollin' now
I wanna be there by morning light
It'll make everything alright
'Cause I've been away too long, oh (take me home)
I've been away too long (take me home)
I've been away too long, oh
Somebody please, somebody take me home
Mmm, mmm, yeah (take me home, home)
Home, home, home
I wanna go home, I wanna go home, yeah
That's got me wrapped around it's fingers
I wanna hear a southern drawl
And taste every word that lingers
I need a Sunday morning song
By a just-got baptized singer
I've been away too long
Somebody take me home
I need a glass of sweet sun tea
Brewed out in the backyard
I wanna see a kudzu vine
Sneaking up on a junk car
I need to sit on my old back porch
'Til the world lets go of my arm
I've been away too long, oh
Somebody take me home
Lord, have mercy on a poor boy's soul
Crank it up and make these big wheels roll
Can you get me there by the morning light?
And make everything alright
'Cause I've been away too long, oh
Somebody take me home
I love this job, I do
But my soul is wearing thin, oh
I gotta get lost in where I'm from
And find myself again, oh
I've been away too long
Won't somebody take me home, oh
I wanna waste a day with my little man
Throwing me that old football
Spend some time with Daddy's girls
Catching up on what's going on

Oh, Lord, have mercy on a poor boy's soul (boy's soul)
Crank it up and make these big wheels roll

Oh, Lord, have mercy on my soul
Crank it up and make these big wheels rollin' now
I wanna be there by morning light
It'll make everything alright
'Cause I've been away too long, oh (take me home)
I've been away too long (take me home)
I've been away too long, oh
Somebody please, somebody take me home
Mmm, mmm, yeah (take me home, home)
Home, home, home
I wanna go home, I wanna go home, yeah
