Rollin' Home

Status Quo

( david )I left my home one day
For the sake of better pay
In a forreign land 12 centuries back in time
Where the sun keeps burning down
On the hole drilled in the ground
And I dream of the girl I left behindWell I signed the dotted line
And I thought in a few years time
I'd be home and we can start a brand new life
But everything went wrong
And I just don't know how long
They will make me stay to pay for my crimeAnd I wish I was
Rollin'home, rollin'home
Home to the place I long to be
Oh, oh, oh, rollin'home, rollin'home
There's someone waiting there for meThere's a law that rules this land
That I just didn't understand
I didn't know that I was doing wrong
But they don't seem to care
And they all do it when they're over there
But here your face is justice of their godAnd I wish I was
Rollin'home, rollin'home
Home to the place I long to be
Oh, oh, oh, rollin'home, rollin'home
There's someone waiting there for meAll the money that I've saved
To pay for better days
Just can't make up for how I miss you so
There's no consolation prize
Oh, but when I close my eyes
I'm dreaming of you in our new homeAnd I wish I was
Rollin'home, rollin'home
Home to the place I long to be
Oh, oh, oh, rollin'home, rollin'home
There's someone waiting there for meRollin'home there's somone waiting for me
Rollin'home there's somone waiting for me
