Oklahoma Going Home Lyrics

INTRO: Em
Another time I'm going home
Down this road on my own
I see the trees and feel the sun
Is this the time my travelling's done?
CHORUS:
But Daddy, it's been too long
Since I've been grown and gone along
How're you doing, and how've you been?
It'll be awhile 'til I'm here again
I see the house and the old wood shed
I wonder how many friends are dead
Have you seen my boy, is he growing tall?
How's his ma, is she pretty still?
CHORUS:
But Daddy, it's been too long
Since I've been grown and gone along
How're you doing, and how've you been?
It'll be awhile 'til I'm here again
The years have been good, I could be drinking less
Out on the coast, I've found it's best
There's been lots of singing and lots of pain
But you know, I'd live it again
CHORUS:
But Daddy, it's been too long
Since I've been grown and gone along
How're you doing, and how've you been?
It'll be awhile 'til I'm here again
Some things haven't changed way out there
I still have my shotgun and my long hair
And the mountains and me are the best of friends
I'm still looking for a woman who really understands
CHORUS:
But Daddy, it's been too long
Since I've been grown and gone along
How're you doing, and how've you been?
It'll be awhile 'til I'm here again
