Can't Go Back Home lyrics

Packing my suitcase, tan boots

Slip out the back door and nothing to loose

Full moon rising out on the road

Ain't carrying nothing but the heavy load

Turn in lose of the ties that bind

Feeling turmol in my mind

But I can't look back, these times are gone

I know, I can't go back home

My grand-daddy he left his things

He stands tall but he's kinda bent

His hands are warm

But they are strong

Takes care of his place, he lives alone

Now I'm sure he wonders what's happen to me

He's keeping it real, I'm living a dream

He checks the cows, Lord, he's up at dawn

But I know I can't go back home

There was a storm the other night

Had to talk to God, try to set things right

Church door was locked, Lord, I stood in the rain

Waiting for and answer

But it never came

I believe in living, give it all I got

I'm strong enough to except all that

A little piece of daylight, time to move on

It's just a reminder, I can't go back home

Just a reminder

I can't go back home

Just a reminder

I can't go back home

I can't go back home

No going home

Can't go back home
