The light is getting dimmer They say that happens when you go My chances are slimmer Than they were a week ago I'm not sure what to call it Some people say it's called gone I don't know how I'll get there But I know I'm going home Going home I'm going home I don't need no car to drive I don't need no telephone Going home I'm going home I'm not sure what it looks like But I know I'm going home I always figured heaven Might have a little touch of hell 'Cause this side of the river Always looks out on farewell Leaving's never pleasant Especially when you go alone Unless you've got a road map In your soul that leads back home Going home I'm going home I don't need no car to drive I don't need no telephone Going home I'm going home I'm not sure what it looks like But I know I'm going home Going home I'm going home I don't need no car to drive I don't need no telephone Going home I'm going home I'm not sure what it looks like But I know I'm going home I'm not sure what it looks like But I know I'm going home
