Lyrics
COME ON HOME
Baby I?ve been down this road before
Said goodbye and closed the door
And if I should die before I wake
I pray to God my soul he?ll take
Chorus: Tell me can you see the angels comin
Tell me can you see the mighty fallin
Tell me can you hear the whistle blowin
Sayin it?s time to come home
It?s time to come home
Come on home
Baby I?ve been down this road before
Gave my heart and lost the war
And if you should die before I wake
I pray to God your soul he?ll take
Chorus:
Baby I?ve been down this road before
Said goodbye and closed the door
And if we should die before we wake
I pray to God our souls he?ll take
Tell me can you see the angels comin
Tell me can you see the mighty fallin
Tell me can you hear the whistle blowin
Sayin it?s time to come home
It?s time to come home
baby it?s time to come home
Go on home
