Won't you go back home, young fella
While you still got time
Go back home, young fella
While you still got time
The big city women and the big city gin
Will get you in a fix where you can't win
So you better take my advice
Don't let me have to tell you twice
Quit your fuss, get on that bus
And go back home
Now go back home, young fella
Before they break your heart
Go back home, young fella
Before they break your heart
Your mama is praying and your daddy is too
That sweet little Suzy is waiting for you
So you better take my advice
Don't let me have to tell you twice
Quit your fuss, get on that bus
And go back home
The winter is coming and the country is cold
You know it will freeze to your very soul
The women are fast and the money is slow
(The money slow, The money go so slow)
And this ain't something I heard
This is something I know
So go back home, young fella
You better not tarry to long
Go back home, a young fella
Better not tarry to long
The cold white snow will fall as sleet and hail
Catch you sleepin' on the subway gonna put you in jail
So you better take my advice
Don't make me have to tell you twice
Quit your fuss, get on that bus
And go back home
(Won't you go back home)
Now go back home, young fella
Go home, young fella
Go home, go home, go on home
Go home, go back home
