Sweet Home Lyrics - Remedy - Old Crow Medicine Show

Two hobos on a railroad line 

I'm getting ready to go 

Pulling on a bottle of burgundy wine 

I'm getting ready to go 

Well they couldn't hear That southbound whistle when 

The Dixie Flyer burned around the bend 

And it punched their tickets for the promise land 

I'm getting ready to go 

(Chorus) 

Sweet home, loving heaven heaven 

Sweet home, can't ya hear me singing low 

Sweet home, lordy I'll be traveling 

So throw the gates wide open 

Cause I'm getting ready to go 

Two magpies on telephone wire 

I'm getting ready to go 

Singing to the corn like a heavenly choir 

I'm getting ready to go 

Old Framer John must be sleeping sound 

They shucked that corn and passed it around 

But the old man's wife got her shotgun down 

I'm getting ready to go 

(Chorus) 

Listen here pal 'fore your road is run 

And your tightrope breaks in two 

It's a mighty big world you're standing on 

And it keeps going round without little old You know who 

Boodle-am boodle-am boodle-am boodle-am boo 

Toodle-am toodle-am toodle-am toodle-am too 

Shake a leg shake a leg shake a leg shake a leg now 

Break a leg drag a leg shake a leg grab a leg Break a leg shake a leg nowWell it's so long, good luck, great to know you I'm getting ready to go 

May the lord above take a liking to you I'm getting ready to go 

Well it's a short life of trouble so don't make more 

When death comes creeping 'round your back door 

It don't knock twice brother that's for sure 

I'm getting ready to go 

(Chorus)
