Gordon Gano & The Ryans Home
Why did I wander
Why did I roam
So far from my home
Why have I wandered
Why did I roam
So far from my own
Kind in my mind
I am returning home
Kindly don't mind me
I'm just yearning for my home
My clothes I have laundered bus ticket on a loan
To take me back to my home
The time I have squandered and the money all blown
So far from my home
Light. In my right mind
I am returning home
Lightly don't spite me
Aren't you yearning for your home
With the beast of the east
I got no more love or need to jaw
For the beast of the east
There ain't enough blood left to feed its ma or its pa
Idly I maunder I speak flatly in my tone
That's the sound of my home
I can't stand it no longer I'm so homesick and alone
So far from my own
Kind. In my mind
I am returning home
Kindly don't mind me
I'm just burning for my home
For the beast of the east
There ain't enough blood to feed its ma or its pa
For the beast in the east
It's all blood mixed in its feed and fed down its maw by its paw
Why did I wander
Why did I roam
So far from my home
Why did I wander so
Why did I roam
So far from my own
I can't stand it no longer I'm so tired to bone
Take me back to my home
I will not walk I will not saunter
If I could I would have flown
To get me back to my home
There's nothing left to ponder I don't question the unknown
Just get me back to my home
Why did I wander
Why did I roam
God please just let me see my home
