Goin' home, goin' home I'm a goin' home; Quiet like, some still day, I'm just goin' home. It's not far, just close by, Through an open door; Work all done, care laid by, Going to fear no more Mother's there, expecting me Father's waitin' too Lot's o'folk gather'd there, All the friends I knew, All the friends I knew. Home, home, I'm goin' home! Nothin' lost, all's gain No more fret nor pain, No more stumbling on the way No more longing for the day, Going to roam no more! Mornin' star lights the way Res'less dream all done Shadows gone, break o'day, Real life just begun There's no break, there's no end. Just a livin' on, Wide awake, with a smile Goin' on and on. Goin' home, goin' home. I'm just goin' home. It's not far, just close by, Through an open door. I'm just goin' home, Goin' home.
