I dream of home up yonder, oh, yeah
Where loved ones are waiting for me, oh, yeah
Each day my heart grows still fonder, oh, yes
For that homeland just over the sea, just over the sea

Oh, let me go home, oh, let me go home
I wanna be with my father once more, oh, yeah
Let me sit down by mothers dear side
I wanna talk as in days of old

In visions, I sometimes to see them
Yes, I can see them around the old fireside, fireside at home
Oh, Lord, then I listen just to hear their sweet voices
Yes, I do, I hear them calling for their children, hey, come on home

Oh, Lord, oh, Lord, let me go home, yeah, let me go home
I wanna be with my father once more, oh, yeah
Oh, Lord, let me sit down by mothers dear side
I wanna talk as in days of old
