Don’t It Make You Want To Go Home - Valerie June

Composed by：Joe South

Don't it make you wanna go home

Don't it make you wanna go home

All God's children get weary when they roam

Don't it make you wanna go home

Don't it make you wanna go home

Well the whippoorwill

Roost on the telephone pole

And the Georgia sun goes down

Well it's been a long time

But I'm glad to say I'm going back down to my hometown

Going down to the Greyhound Station

Gonna buy me a one-way fare

Good Lord's willing and the creeks don't rise

By tomorrow I'll be right there

Don't it make you wanna go home now

Don't it make you wanna go home

All God's children get weary when they roam

Don't it make you wanna go home

Don't it make you wanna go home

But there's a six-lane highway down by the creek

Where I went skinny-dipping as a child

And a drive-in show where the meadow used to grow

And the strawberries used to grow wild

And there's a drag strip down by the riverside y'all know

Where my grandma's cows they used to graze

Now the grass don't grow the grass don't grow

And then Mississippi River it done flow

Like it did in my childhood days

And don't it make you wanna go home now

Don't it make you wanna go home

All God's children get weary when they roam

And don't it make you wanna go home

Don't it make you wanna go home

I wanna see my friend oh

Don't it make you wanna go home

I wanna see my friends

Don't it make you wanna go home

I want a key lime pie on the front porch

I want a sweet sweet tea

In the high storm

I'll take my mum's fried chicken

With some moon shine

And make 'em home-made biscuits with hot jam

Along a dirt road with a

Clear sky give me that muddy road with some black guys

Oh sweet magnolias I'ma grease grease

Gonna be so happy with everything

Take me on a home home home home
