All The Way Home

Words and Music by Tom Paxton

All the way home, let me stay home,
Where the cool summer breezes always blow.
Been the world 'round, been in your town,
All the way home I want to go.

Been a rover, been all over,
Down the Mississippi and the Ohio.
Had a good time, lost my last dime,
All the way home I want to go.

All the way home, let me stay home,
Where the cool summer breezes always blow.
Been the world 'round, been in your town,
All the way home I want to go.

Been in London, walked it over,
And we sang all night long in old Soho.
It's been good here, it's been good beer,
All the way home I want to go.

All the way home, let me stay home,
Where the cool summer breezes always blow.
Been the world 'round, been in your town,
All the way home I want to go.

By the water, there I caught her,
And I never gave her time to tell me "no".
Introduced me to her father,
All the way home I want to go.

All the way home, let me stay home,
Where the cool summer breezes always blow.
Been the world 'round, been in your town,
All the way home I want to go.

Earned some wages, turned some pages,
And the days never seemed to pass too slow.
Let my last train be a fast train.
All the way home I want to go.

All the way home, let me stay home,
Where the cool summer breezes always blow.
Been the world 'round, been in your town,
All the way home I want to go.
