I've Got To Go Back Home

I've got to go back home
This couldn't be my home
It must be somewhere else
Or I would kill myself, because

Can't get no clothes to wear

Can't get no food to eat
Can't get a job to get bread
That's why I've got to

I've got to go back home
I've got to go back home

There is no gladness
Nothing but sadness
Nothing like a future here
I've got to, got to leave this land
I've got to find myself on some other side
I just can't stand this lie for living, lord

Can't get no clothes to wear
Can't get no food to eat
Can't get a job to get bread
That's why I've got to

I've got to go back home
I've got to go back home
I've got to go back home

I've got to go back home, lord
This couldn't be my home
It must be somewhere else
Or I would kill myself, 'cause

Can't get no clothes to wear

Can't get no food to eat
Can't get a job to get bread
That's why I've got to

I've got to go back home
I've got to go back home
I've got to go back home
I've got to go back home
I've got to go back home
