Packed my suitcase, I racked my brain I bought a ticket on a late night train Took a taxi through the pouring rain I'm coming home to you Flew from Boston out to San Jose Saw our old friends in Monterrey Bay When they asked me if I'd like to stay I said I'm coming home to you I'm coming home Made up my mind that's what I'm gonna do Can't love nobody on a telephone I'm coming home to you They through a party there from dust till dawn Seems like everybody knows old Sleepy John He said next time I better bring you along I'm coming home to you They got fresh caught salmon on a barbeque There were people jamming to the all night blues Life is good out in Santa Cruz
But, I'm coming home to you I drove forever out to god knows where Come ten thirty there was no one there They couldn't pay me but I didn't care I'm coming home to you I'm feeling better since I got your card I read it over and over when the road gets hard Nothing better than your old back yard I'm coming home to you I'm coming home Made up my mind that's what I'm gonna do Can't love nobody on a telephone I'm coming home to you I'm coming home Made up my mind that's what I'm gonna do Can't love nobody on a telephone I'm coming home to you Packed my suitcase, I racked my brain I bought a ticket on a late night train Took a taxi through the pouring rain
