Going Home

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
