Lyrics
My body, take my body back home.
My body, take my body back home.
Somebody tell my Mama - never meant
To leave her alone.
Take my body back home.
My heart, can't take it no more.
My soul, just can't take any more.
'Used to think I understood all of this,
But I don't, any more.
Standin' here on my own,
Somebody, please,
Take my body back home.
Take my body back home.
Somebody tell my children
'Never meant to leave them alone,
Take my body back home.
My people. Take my people back home.
My people. Take my people back home.
My body, send my body back home!
My body, take my body back home.
