It's spring time but I haven't seen the sun To see the sun ain't what I signed You said I could get what I ain't got Back home, home where I'm bound Back home where I'm bound I'm a welder in a foreign land I'm working hard days and nights My head is worn out from longing Back home, home where I'm bound Back home where I'm bound I've been here three years and a half now I still dont even own the clothes on my back Well, I'd rather starve together with my family now
Back home, home where I'm bound Back home where I'm bound Where theres music and crickets in my ears all night She said she likes what she sees though I'm quite ugly and not much of a dancer Where the moon is like a big old apple and the liquor comes from the woods Home, Home where I'm bound Back home where I'm bound Back home, home where I'm bound Back home where I'm bound
