I think I know now whats makin me sad It's yearning for my own backyard I realized baby I was wrong to leave Better swallow up my foolish country pride Callin home Runnin home back to gasoline alley Where I started from Callin home Runnin home back to gasoline alley Where I was born Where the weathers better and the rails don't freeze And the wind don't whistle around your knees I'll put on my weather suit and catch an early train I'll be home before the milks upon your door Goin home Runnin home back to gasoline alley Where I started from Callin home Runnin home back to gasoline alley Where I was from Goin home Runnin home back to gasoline alley Where I started from Goin home Runnin home back to gasoline alley Where I was born
If anything should happen and my plans go wrong Should I stray to the house on the hill Let it be known that my intentions are good I'd be singing in the alley if I could And if I'm called away and it's my turn to go Should the blood run cold in my veins Just one favor I'll be askin of you Don't bury me here its to cold Take me back Carry me back down to gasoline alley Where I started from Take me home Carry me home back to gasoline alley Where I was born Take me back Carry me back down to gasoline alley Where I started from Take me home Carry me home back to gasoline alley Where I was born Take me back Carry me home yeah Take me back Don't bury me here its to cold Carry me home Take me back its to cold
