Ron Hawkins - The Prodigal Sun lyrics

I was young and dumb and full o' cum So I bought me an old red car I had hair on my chest so I headed out west Following the lines on the tar And I mistook my brains for looks but I'll never be a movie star Now the stars have shone but the film crew's gone So I'm coming back home You smile like a crocodile And you growl like an old brown bear But you can fly like a dove in the sky When the wind takes hold of your hair And I must've been blind, 'cause I thought I could find that kind of love anywhere What the hell, I was wrong The night's so long So I'm coming back home Rome's alright It snows in Iceland Melbourne's way too far There's Istanbul And L.A.'s cool, but you always gotta to drive your car I can't stand planes And I don't like trains And the ocean's way too dark I wanna lay down my hat I'm through with all that So I'm coming back home Well, the gra** seems green where we've never been But it's seldom true my friend It's a myth we make It's a big mistake It's a party that we all attend My whole heart shook when I read in that book "you can never go home again" But the man was wrong 'Cause the light's still on And it's humming back home Well the road is long But my legs are strong And I'm coming back home Now I'm all done With that prodigal sun So I'm coming back home
