Come Home Johnny Bridie

歌詞

I'm full of pride and my heart feels good Got news from my fam'ly up in the woods At last I can go back where I belong Sweated it all out for nine long years Couldn't believe the voice in my ears When the man saying "No hiding ,son" So I left the only folks I had known I was fifteen then, hardly grown When they found me in the swamp face down in the mud Couldn't get back and I couldn't go far Said to myself stay right where you are Done found yourself a Ma and Pa Ev'rybody said the kid's no good Come home Johnny Bride come home Johnny Bride come home We're all wrong without you How did we ever doubt you He confessed to the killing It's his role we had you filling We didn't really mean to make you sad But when you ran you made us think that you were twice as bad I left the only folks I had known I was fifteen then , hardly grown When they found me in the swamp face down in the mud Couldn't get back and I couldn't go far Said to myself stay right where you are Done found yourself a Ma and Pa Ev'rybody said the kid's no good Come Home Johnny Bride come home Johnny Bride come home We're all wrong without you How did we ever doubt you He confessed to the killing It's his role we had you filling We didn't really mean to make you sad But when you ran you made us think that you were twice as bad (repeat last verse and fade out about line 6)
