Tony Joe White - The Migrant lyrics

I know that your weed fields need working And there's just time before the rain starts to fall But I cannot stay for the harvest 'Cause tonight I'm headin' down south goodbye I'll see you all. I hear there's a while line a hirin' hands out in Texas So I guess I'll go and brush a well or two Can you wait until I'm makin' up to get us through the winter For the days are short and cold and work is scarce. Mhm, the fragnance of your hair is in each meadow And your smile has touched the wind And as I work my way closer to you It feels so good to be close to home again. When the leaves fall from the trees Look out your window, oh yeah And you'll see me coming up the road Run as fast as you can out to meet me And throw your arms around me baby 'Cause baby I'm home... I finally got back home, home sweet home It's too good to be back home...
