Comin' home - John Parr

Headin' down this iron road

These six strings on my back

Must be twenty years or more

Since this train roared down the track

Sometimes I hear the whistle blowin'

Conductor shoutin' all aboard

But I’m rustin' in the stockyard

Said that’s all I was good for

I dream I’m heading down this iron road

I dream I’m heading back

I’m building up a head of steam

And I’m burnin' up the track

I see her wavin' from her window

I’m smiling… wavin' back

I don’t feel so alone

I’m comin' home

And it feels like the first time

I’m comin' home

Comin' home for the last time

Stokin' up the embers

I can see the fire rise

Every flame burnin'

Lightin' memories in her eyes

All I’m asking from you is a second chance

I’m comin' home

And it feels like the first time

I’m comin' home

See the world in a new light

I’m comin' home

See the world in a new light

I’m comin' home
