[Intro]
A(8 + 8 bars)
[Verse 1]
AI wanna live the way I like
Sleep all the morning
Goin' get my fun at night
DThings ain't like that here
DWorkin' just to keep my payments Aclear
I Ebought a brand new motor
And I'm Dwaitin' for a loan
So I can Efill her up and start her
Then I'm Cgoing Bback Ahome
[Verse 2]
AI got a gal a man's best friend
I'd have her now if she'd just come back again
But she Dleft me in the fog
Told me that I treat her like a Adog
The Elast time that I saw her she was Dburyin' a bone
I'm Etired of whistlin' for her
Then I'm Cgoing Bback Ahome

GOING BACK HOME

DR. FEELGOOD (WILKO JOHNSON/MICK GREEN)

FROM THE ALBUM “THE BEST OF DR FEELGOOD”

[Intro]

(8 + 8 bars)

[Verse 1]

I wanna live the way I like

Sleep all the morning

Goin' get my fun at night

Things ain't like that here

D A

Workin' just to keep my payments clear

I bought a brand new motor

And I'm waitin' for a loan

So I can fill her up and start her

C B A

Then I'm going back home

[Verse 2]

I got a gal a man's best friend

I'd have her now if she'd just come back again

But she left me in the fog

Told me that I treat her like a dog

E D

The last time that I saw her she was buryin' a bone

I'm tired of whistlin' for her

C B A

Then I'm going back home

[Instrumental]
