And now I think I'm coming home
If that train should run far
I'll be back with the morning star
Back to the place where I was born
Back to the place where I was born
But I al ways knew my rights from my wrongs
I thought you loved me best
And I guess you know the rest
And all them reasons why I'm gone
And all them reasons why I'm gone
But I ain't a -sayin' you are to blame
I'll forget you on that evening train
I was born with the Buddha blue
I'll ride them rails back from where I came
And I know I'm still looking for your face
I once knew where I was bound
But a true love I never found
And I guess my life has only been a waste
I guess my life has only been a waste
And now I think I'm a -comin' home
If that train should run right
I'll be back before the light
Back to the place where I was born
Back to the place where I was
