A couple of hours turned to weeks and days.
This keeps up I'll be stuck here to stay.
There's another message waiting,
Please, Oh Please say
Hum hum hum
I'm going home.
Been here so long, think I lost my mind.
Fixin' the same problems time after time
Can't sleep at night,
and I daydream of the time,
Ho ho hum
I'm going home.
Red-eye flights and screwed up rental cars.
Seedy hotel rooms and the hard luck bars.
They taken toll of me.
They taken my all.
There's a place a'calling.
You can hear it off far.
Seems so long ago.
Like never been there at all.
Let me go...
I'm going home.
Called and paged all the time day and night.
Worked so long and hard, can't even grab a bite
Three thousand miles to go,
but I don't mind...
Hum hum ho
I'm going home.
Trying to sleep at 38 thousand feet.
Served half an sandwich they call a treat.
But that's ok now,
`cause I'm on my way home
Ho ho hum
I'm coming home.
