Rollin' Home Lyrics - Status Quo

I left my home one day for the sake of better pay 

In a foreign land twelve centuries back in time 

Where the sun keeps pouring down on the holes down in the ground 

And I dream of the girl I left behind 

Well I signed on the dotted line and I thought in a few years time 

I'd be home and we could start a brand new life 

But everything went wrong and I just don't know how long 

They will make me stay to pay for my crime 

And I wish I was 

Rollin' home, rollin' home 

Home to the place I long to be 

Oh-oh rollin' home, rollin' home 

There's someone waiting there for me

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

There's a law that rules this land that I just didn't understand 

I didn't know that I was doing wrong 

But they don't seem to care and they'll do it when they're over there 

But here you face the justice of their God 

And I wish I was 

Rollin' home, rollin' home 

Home to the place I long to be 

Oh-oh rollin' home, rollin' home 

There's someone waiting there for me 

All the money that I saved to pay for better days 

Just can't make up for how I miss you so 

There's no consolation prize but when I close my eyes 

I'm dreaming of you in our new home 

And I wish I was 

Rollin' home, rollin' home 

Home to the place I long to be 

Oh-oh rollin' home, rollin' home 

There's someone waiting there for me 

Rollin' home, rollin' home 

Home to the place I long to be 

Oh-oh rollin' home, rollin' home 

There's someone waiting there for me
