jr. walker & the all stars - way back home (vocal) (stereo promo version) lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
oh, there’s good ‘n bad things about the south, boy
oh, and some leave a bitter taste in my mouth, now
yeah!
like the black man livin’ across the track
white man were on the other side holdin’ him back
way back home, now

[verse 2]
oh, but we won’t talk about that ’cause it’s understood
every body sees the bad but what about the good
ooh, i’d give anything just to smell that scent
of honeysuckle growin’ on a backyard fence
way back home, now

‘oow!’
‘oh heaven scent, y’all!’

[chorus]
(way back home)
yeah, way back home
(way back home)
thinkin’ on back home

[verse 2]
i’d love to smell the wetness of gr-ss and trees
and see ground kissed by honey bees
like way back home, now

[verse 3]
oh, but childhood daysa re dead ‘n gone
well, but the memories still linger on
oh, have you ever gone swimmin’ in a muddy creek
with nothin’ on your body from head to feet
way back home, yeah

[verse 4]
how you play for the game like hide an seek
yeah!
and snake through the weeds overhear the streams
well, i know some kids still play those games
but when they play it just ain’t the same
like way back home

‘sad to sing it, y’all!’

[chorus]
(way back home)
yeah
way back home, way back home
(way back home)
oh yeah

[bridge]
oh, i really miss those things that have faded away
i remember them like it was yesterday
now, way back home

[chorus]
(way back home)
(way back home)
doo-doo, do-do
doo-doo, do-ooo-do

when the lord decides to take me away
hey let me rest in the land where i used to play
ah you know i miss that gl-ss and ice cream cup
and the days that was part of my growing up
now way back home

[chorus]
(way back home)
(way back home)
(way back home)
(way back home)
doo-doo, do-do
doo-doo, do-ooo-do
(way back home)
(way back home)
