Eatin' strawberry pie in a mid-town diner
Next thing you know you're back in South Carolina
Stuffin' your mouth at Grandma's houseThen a lady in a booth gets onto her kids
Lays down the law like your mama did
And it makes you smile 'cause every once in a whileWe all go home to a place and a time
In our hearts and our minds
That we just can't outgrowThere's a tie that'll bind you
And love that'll find you
No matter where you go
Someday, someway we all go homeYou tell yourself the grass is greener
That Podunk town ain't the place for a dreamer
Throw a dart at a map and you don't look backTry to change your clothes and the way you talk
One day you slip on that Southern drawl
And you have to laugh, yeah, just like thatWe all go home to a place and a time
In our hearts and our minds
That we just can't outgrowThere's a tie that'll bind you
And love that'll find you
No matter where you go
Someday, someway we all go homeThe choir sings and the preacher talks
Six of your old friends take you for a walk
Up that shady hill, yeah, someday they willWe all go, we all go homeThere's a tie that'll bind you
And love that'll find you
No matter where you go
Someday, someway we all go homeWe all go home
We all go home
We all go home
We all go home
