Always Rollin’ Home

(Bob Nolan)

 

I’m a rollin’ stone, always rollin’ home.

I guess I’ll have to break the habit

Sorry now I ever had it for I’m always rollin’ home

Travelin’ all alone, guess I should have known

That when the summer breeze a-blowin’

Brings a smell of things a-growin’

I’d be always rollin’ home.

 

I never knew how much I’d miss that old pine tree.

It seems that I can hear him sighin’ just for me,

"Won’t you please come home?"

Lonely years have flown

And brought that old familiar feelin’

To my heart that comes a stealin’

When I’m always rollin’ home.

 

Ever since the day I went away

I’ve been always rollin’ home.

Everything I left behind me

Seemed to say "Why did you roam?"

The little gal I loved so well is calling

Calling to her rollin’ stone.

Now no matter where I go my heart’s returnin’

And I’m always rollin’ home.

 

I’m a rollin’ stone, always rollin’ home.

I guess I’ll have to break the habit

Sorry now I ever had it for I’m always rollin’ home.

Travelin’ all alone, I guess I should have known

That when the summer breeze a-blowin’

Brings a smell of things a-growin’

I’d be always rollin’ home.

 

I never knew how much I’d miss that old pine tree.

It seems that I can hear him sighin’ just for me,

"Won’t you please come home?"

Lonely years have flown

And brought that old familiar feelin’

To my heart that comes a stealin’

When I’m always rollin’ home.

Rollin' home!
