Daddy worked out in the lumber by the cemetery road carrying the load the best he We'd see him from the highway when mom drive us to town he looked so small between rows of wood
He'd come around supper time, kick the sawdust off his boots take my baby in his arms I was only five old but I remember it so well, I learned what love was there in our single-wide home
It was a single-wide home on a dead-end gravel On the back side of my land We had a fifteen acre and it was a paradise to me Lord, i wish i could go again
We got television back in '85, Fifty chanels the world to me And the cartoons and the evening news me how tio be afraid of guns and drugs and
I cried "mama, oh mama, I don't ever to leave" and she said "son, one day you'll be on your own, but jesus died so you might live and you don't have to be afraid" yeah, I found God there in our wide home
It was a home and I had a bible in my hand Jesus saved me my sins
As gotten older I've drifted away, Lord I wish I could go home again i wish i could go home
Now that trailer's in the scrap yard.. out by the interstate, where all the strangers in When died they sold the property down the timber.. and started building
It was a single-wide home, just off Trail Back the developers moved in It's all up now by track houses and rows
Oh, and I wish I could go home again I wish I could go home To a home Ohh, oh, oh
