When You're a Long, Long Way from Home
I know where the sun is shining I know where someone ispining just a simple pal a country gal I know she's trueWhat's the use of tears and sighing after many years oftrying guess I'm going home no more to roam I'm feeling blue.When I leave this town I'll hurry where they never frown orworry when I say goodbye no one will sigh when I am gonegive me back the brooks and clover with those shady nooksall over I could be content without a cent where I was born.When you're a long long way from home it makes you feellike you're alone its hard to find a pal that's true that you cantell your troubles to and when you send a letter home yourmother's voice rings in your ears and then you cross the T'swith kisses what a strange world this is, then you dot the I'swith tears and all the sunshine turns to gloom when you're a longway from home.
