Going Back Home Lyrics - Singles - Son Seals

Sometimes I wonder, whyd I ever leave home? 

Sometimes I wonder, whyd I ever leave home? 

I had a few dollars in my pocket 

Oh, now that little change is gone 

I didnt think a city boy could be so dog-gone mean 

I didnt think a city boy could be so dog-gone mean 

Boy, but this is the meanest place 

Lord, Ive ever seen 

I used to have a job, doing spot labor every day 

I used to have a job, doing spot labor every day 

But when I got to work this morning 

Lord, they packed up and moved away 

I called my boss, I want to know, can I come back home? 

Yes, I called my boss, I want to know can I come back home? 

He said, now you know, Im sorry, son 

Boy, you been gone too long
