GI'm goin back to mCy home Gtown
Gonna Csit right dFown and take a Glook arouCnd
GTall trees talkin all alCong the shGore
Where the Cwood meets the Friver at the Gforest floCor
The Amgrass hangs Gheavy all Ffull of raCin
No Awise dog Ewanders through the Ccomin grDain
But does a Gtrue heart change or does it Cstay the sGame
Think I'll Cgo on bFack to from Gwhere I cCame

The Dsound of the siren in the Amwinds that blow

Some Clove's they's Fleavin some will Gstick aroCund
GTall trees talkin can you Chear the soGund
Of the Cmad man Fsittin at the Griver's moCuth
Some Amdance for jGoy, some Fsing for raCin

But I've Gseen the workers and I've Cseen the bGums
And they Call shine Fequal in the Gsetting sCun, yeah
