Prodigal Blues
Riding my life like a run-a-way train
Moving from one track to that
Howling, crying, screaming at the moon
Only my voice came back
Only the echo came back
When I was a boy, Daddy told me, "Grow tall
Yes and, Billy, don't crawl"
Taught me how to ride
Set me out on my own and I never came back
And yes, I'd do it again
Oh, wouldn't you?
Yeah, I'd do it again
A-huh, oh yeah
Do it again, baby
Wouldn't you?
Remember when I lied
Just when you needed me
Now I sit alone and cry
'Cause now I believe in mercy
Remember when I lied
Just when you needed me, baby
I believe in mercy
Riding, walking, looking so cool
Guess I crossed over the borderline
Treated like a dunce who just can't read
Did I fool me too?
And yes, I'd do it again
Oh, wouldn't you?
Yes, I'd do it again
Aha yeah, I'd do it again, baby
Wouldn't you?
Remember when I lied
Just when you needed me
Now I sit alone and cry
'Cause now I believe in mercy
Remember when I lied
Now that you needed me
Yes, I believe in mercy
I said, "Come here, look into my face
And hear into my heart"
Hesitation could rearrange the other side to your love
Take hold now, baby
And take what other lovers have not
Times is changing, will they rearrange the other side to your love
No, woah, woah, woah, yeah
Woo-woo-woo-ooh
Come home
Here he is, impatient one
Come home, come home
Tell the story
Come home
Here he is, the impatient one
Come home to claim a glory
Prodigal son come home
Prodigal bum come home
Prodigal son
(Here he is) prodigal son
Come home to claim a glory
Prodigal son come home
No hunger at home
Here he comes, hear that prodigal son, ooh
He's the one to tell his story
C'mon, to tell his story
C'mon, tell your story
C'mon, claim your glory
Prodigal son
Moving from one track to that
Howling, crying, screaming at the moon
Only my voice came back
Only the echo came back
When I was a boy, Daddy told me, "Grow tall
Yes and, Billy, don't crawl"

Set me out on my own and I never came back
And yes, I'd do it again
Oh, wouldn't you?
Yeah, I'd do it again
A-huh, oh yeah
Do it again, baby
Wouldn't you?
Remember when I lied
Just when you needed me
Now I sit alone and cry
'Cause now I believe in mercy
Remember when I lied
Just when you needed me, baby
I believe in mercy
