I'm goin' back to my home town
Gonna sit right down and take a look around
Tall trees talking all along the shore

Where the wood meets the river at the forest floor
The grass hangs heavy all full of rain
The wise dog wanders through the coming grain

Now does a true heart change
Or does it stay the same
Think I'll go on back to from where I came,

Yeah

The sound of the sun and the winds that blow

They hold no candle to the things I know
Oh I'm goin' back down to my home town
Gonna break some ground

Take a look around
Cause I'm goin' back to my home town
Some love stays leaving, some will stick around

Tall trees talking can ya hear the sound
Of the mad man sitting at the river's mouth
Some dance for joy, some sing for rain

Say it'll only take a woman to drive a man insane
I've seen the workers and I've seen the bums
And they all shine equal in the setting sun

Yeah

I'm goin' back to my home town

Gonna sit right down and take a look around
The fools lay fallow can ya hear the sound
Better call on the spirit cause I'm weathered down

The grass hangs heavy, it's full of rain
The wise dog wanders through the coming grain
Now does a true heart change or does it stay the same

Think I'll go on back to from where I came
Yeah


The song of the sun and the winds that blow
They hold no candle to the things I know
Oh I'm goin' back down to my home town

Gonna break some ground
Take a look around
