0:12I hear something hanging on the wind
0:19I see black smoke up around the bend
0:25I got my ticket and
0:28I'm going to go home
0:46The leaves have changed a time or two
0:53Since the last time the train came through
0:59I got my ticket and I'm going to go home
1:42My father's father's blood is on the track
1:49A sweet refrain drifts in from the past
1:55I got my ticket and I'm going to go home
2:16The winding roads they led me here
2:23Burn like coal and dry like tears
2:29So here's my hope
2:31My tired soul
2:35So here's my ticket
2:38I want to go home
2:50Home
2:58Home
I hear something hanging on the wind I see black smoke up around the bend I got my ticket and I'm going to go home The leaves have changed a time or two Since the last time the train came through I got my ticket and I'm going to go home My father's father's blood is on the track A sweet refrain drifts in from the past I got my ticket and I'm going to go home The winding roads they led me here Burn like coal and dry like tears So here's my hope My tired soul So here's my ticket I want to go home Home Home
