Home Lyrics - Diffie Joe

The only the thing I see ahead is 

Just the heat a rising off the road 

The rainbows I've been chasing keep on fading before I find my pot of gold 

But more and more I'm thinking, that the only treasures that I'll ever know 

Are long ago and far behind and wrapped up in my memories of home 

Home was a swimming hole and a fishing pole and the feel of a muddy row between my toes 

Home was a back porch swing where I would sit and mom would sing amazing grace 

While she hung out the clothes, 

Home was an easy chair with my daddy there and the smell of Sunday supper on the stove 

My footsteps carry me away but in my mind I'm always going home 

Now the miles I put behind me ain't as hard as the miles that lay ahead 

And its much to late to listen to the words of wisdom that my daddy said 

The straight and narrow path he showed me turned into a thousand winding roads, 

My footsteps carry me away, but in my mind I'm always going home. 

Home was a swimming hole and a fishing pole and the feel of a muddy row between my toes 

Home was a back porch swing where I would sit and mom would sing amazing grace 

While she hung out the clothes, 

Home was an easy chair with my daddy there and the smell of Sunday supper on the stove 

My footsteps carry me away but in my mind I'm always going home 

Yeah, the straight and narrow path he showed me turned into a thousand winding roads, 

My footsteps carry me away, but in my mind I'm always going home.
