DONT IT MAKE YOU WANT TO GO HOME ?
(Words and Music by Joe South)
Dont it make you want to go home now?
Dont it make you want to go home?
All Gods children get weary when they roam
Dont it make you want to go home?
Dont it make you want to go home?
Oh, the whippoorwill roosts on the telephone pole
And the Georgia sun goes down
Well, its been a long time but Im glad to say that Im
Going back down to my home town
Going down to the Greyhound station
Gonna buy me a one-way fare
Good Lord willing and the creeks dont rise
By tomorrow, Ill be right there
Dont it make you want to go home now?
Dont it make you want to go home?
All Gods children get weary when they roam
Dont it make you want to go home?
Dont it make you want to go home?
But, theres a six-lane highway down by the creek
Where I went skinny-dipping as a child
And a drive-in show where the meadows used to grow
And the strawberries used to grow wild
Theres a drag strip down by the riverside
Where my grandmas cow used to graze
Now the grass dont grow and the river don’t flow
Like it did in my childhood days
Dont it make you want to go home now?
Dont it make you want to go home?
All Gods children get weary when they roam
Dont it make you want to go home?
Tell me, dont it make you want to go home?
Dont it make you want to go home now?
Dont it make you want to go home?
All Gods children get weary when they roam
And God, how I want to go home
Dont it make you want to go home?
Tell me, dont it make you want to go home?
All Gods children get weary when they roam
Now, dont it make you want to go home?
I want to know now
Dont it make you want to go home now?
Dont it make you want to go home?
All Gods children get weary when they roam
Dont it make you want to go home?
Oh, dont it make you want to go home?
