All the way home, let me stay home
Where the cool summer breezes always blow
Been the world 'round, been in your town
All the way home I want to go

Been a rover, been all over
Down the Mississippi and the Ohio
Had a good time, lost my last dime
All the way home I want to go

All the way home, let me stay home
Where the cool summer breezes always blow
Been the world 'round, been in your town
All the way home I want to go

Been in London, walked it over
And we sang all night long in old Soho
It's been good here, it's been good beer
And all the way home I want to go

All the way home, let me stay home
Where the cool summer breezes always blow
Been the world 'round, been in your town
All the way home I want to go

By the water, there I caught her
And I never gave her time to tell me no
Introduced me to her father
All the way home I want to go
All the way home, let me stay home
Where the cool summer breezes always blow
Been the world 'round, been in your town
All the way home I want to go

Earned some wages, turned some pages
And the days never seemed to pass too slow
Let my last train be a fast train
All the way home I want to go

All the way home, let me stay home
Where the cool summer breezes always blow
Been the world 'round, been in your town
All the way home I want to go
