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
