I'd Like to Wander Back to the Old Home Lyrics

{title:I’d Like to Wander Back to the Old Home}
Not so long ago I left my home place
In search of big city dreams.
But I never seemed to find, the easy life
That I read about in those fancy magazines.
{soc}
Oh, I’d Like to wander back to the old home
Hear the sound of a lonesome whippoorwill.
Visit Mom and Dad a resting in a graveyard
Nestled back within the old Kentucky hills.
{eoc}
{c: Break}
I was afraid to let my Mom and Dad know
That their son had winded up in jail.

Letters I sent home said I was doing well
I couldn’t let um know their wonder boy had failed.
{soc}
Oh, I’d Like to wander back to the old home
Hear the sound of a lonesome whippoorwill.
Visit Mom and Dad a resting in a graveyard
Nestled back within the old Kentucky hills.
{eoc}
{c: Break}
I was doing time when Mom and Daddy passed away
I couldn’t be there to kiss them both goodbye.
If they every free me from this prison cell
I’ll plant flowers all around their dear gravesite.
{soc}
Oh, I’d Like to wander back to the old home
Hear the sound of a lonesome whippoorwill.
Visit Mom and Dad a resting in a graveyard
Nestled back within the old Kentucky hills.
{eoc}
