Lyrics
I have been away too long, yes I've been away too long
Ain't it good to be back in our southern mountain home
Where the sun always shines and you can feel the time unwind
Singing all the family songs, lord I've been away too long
Come on in and have a taste of what this life is like for me
There's fresh cornbread in the kitchen and there's oranges on the tree
Gather round the old oak table with our friends and family
Lord this distance and the time has made me see
We'll sing All Around the Water Tank and sweet old Abilene
You might hear a hot guitar break called Blue Yodel, Number 3
Bringing all the old times back with tales of precious memories
Going home has never seemed so sweet to me
Now the folks are getting old so many family have passed on
And as time goes by I feel the need to spend more time at home
But the world keeps moving and it don't slow down for anyone
So I'll keep a word and count the days I'm goneDemo Videos
