I'm On My Way To The Old Home

Bill Monroe

TEXTY - LYRICS Little Georgia Rose

1. Back in the days of my childhood.
   In the evening when everything was still
   I used to sit and listen to the foxes.
   And my Dad in them old Kentucky hills.
   
   Chorus:
   I'm on my way back to the old home.
   That road winds on up the hill.
   But there's no light in the window.
   That shines long ago where I lived.
   
   
   
2. Soon my childhood days are over.
   I had no leave my old home.
   Mother and dad was called to heaven.
   I'm left in this world all alone.
   
   Chorus: ...
   
   
   
3. High in the hills of old Kentucky
   Stands a fond spot in my memory.
   I'm on my way back to the old home.
   That light in the window I want to see.
   
   Chorus: ...
   Chorus: ...
