Back home
 
 You'll see those ruby berries shine
 
 Tip your head back
 
 Drink that summer wine
 
  
  Sister, brother, tell dad and mom
 
 Not to worry, it won't be too long
 
 'Cause I'm on my way
 
 I'm on my way
 
 I'm on my way
  
 
 Back home
 
 You'll hear no ring of no telephone
 
 Just put your feet up
 
 Make yourself at home
  
 
 Hm, sister, brother, tell dad and mom
 
 Not to worry, it won't be too long
 
 'Cause I'm on my way
 
 I'm on my way
 
 I'm on my way
  
 
 Oh, and I'm leavin' the city
 
 This time it's for good
 
 Oh, and my baby's so pretty
 
 If you like her, like her, like her
 
 I'll stay for good
  
 
 Hm, sister, brother, tell dad and mom
 
 Not to worry, it won't be too long
 
 'Cause I'm on my way
 
 I'm on my way
 
 I'm on my way
  
 
 Well, back home
 
 You'll feel that country feel all the time, yeah
 
 And when that cock crows
 
 You'll really want to rise and shine
  
 
 Hm, sister, brother, tell dad and mom
 
 Not to worry, it won't be too long
 
 'Cause I'm on my way
 
 I'm on my way
 
 I'm on my way
