Prodigal's Return Lyrics - Nitty Gritty Dirt Band

He come a ridin' He come a ridin' He come a ridin' He come... 

Four A.M., look who come a callin' 

Ridin' down the road 

Billy come back from a journey of folly 

Ridin' down the road 

He come ridin' back home 

Warming the hearts of his own 

He come downtown Des Moines 

And now he starts to putting me down 

I don't think he's been rolling too long

Eighteen years of total revolution 

Ridin' down the road 

Say listen to me daddy Now I've got a solution 

Ridin' down the road 

Why not let me come in 

I'm still your boy and your kin 

Remember the prodigal sin 

Said son we're gonna give unto you 

What mama thinks you got comin' due 

He come a ridin' Billy come a call come a call, call 

He come a ridin' He's ridin' down, down, down, (yeah)
