Where I left my mother and daddy all alone

There’s been a lot of changes there since I’ve been around

I’d like to wander back to the old home town

Chorus:

You’ll never miss the old folks until you’ve been away

And then you’ll need a friend to help you every day

Then you’ll call on mother but she won’t be around

I’d like to wander back to the old home town

I’ve searched this whole world over since I’ve been around

I’ve never found a place just like the old home town

If I could live life over I’d never roam around

I’d like to wander back to the old home town

Chorus:

You’ll never miss the old folks…

break

Chorus:

You’ll never miss the old folks… end
