Well, I've been a traveler most of my life
Never took a home, never took a wife
Ran away young and decided to roam
Wanna see my mama and my daddy back home.

Chorus:
Home, where the river runs cold
The water tastes good, the winters ain't cold
Home, where the trees grow tall
The home fires burn, the whippoorwills call.

I remember stories that my daddy used to tell
My eyes would get big, and his chest would swell
I could sit for hours and listen with glee
As he'd tell of how he lived when he's a boy like me.

Chorus:
Home, where the river runs cold
The water tastes good, the winters ain't cold
Home, where the trees grow tall
The home fires burn, the whippoorwills call.

Well, mama dear, mama do you still love your boy
After all my roamin' can I still bring you joy
Mom sent a letter, got it not long ago
She said, ''Come home, I'm missin' you so...''


Mirror lyrics:

She said, ''Come home, I'm missin' you so...''
Mom sent a letter, got it not long ago
After all my roamin' can I still bring you joy
Well, mama dear, mama do you still love your boy

The home fires burn, the whippoorwills call.
Home, where the trees grow tall
The water tastes good, the winters ain't cold
Home, where the river runs cold
Chorus:

As he'd tell of how he lived when he's a boy like me.
I could sit for hours and listen with glee
My eyes would get big, and his chest would swell
I remember stories that my daddy used to tell

The home fires burn, the whippoorwills call.
Home, where the trees grow tall
The water tastes good, the winters ain't cold
Home, where the river runs cold
Chorus:

Wanna see my mama and my daddy back home.
Ran away young and decided to roam
Never took a home, never took a wife
Well, I've been a traveler most of my life
