ALL ROADS LEAD HOME
WITH A BUS TICKET AND A DUFFLE BAG IN MY HAND
I SAID, ""DON'T WORRY DAD NOW I'M A MAN""
HE TOLD ME, "" SON I JSUT WANT YOU TO KNOW
YOU'LL BE IN OUR PRAYERS WHEREVER YOU GO.
THAT SAME OLD ROAD THAT'S TAKING YOU AWAY
WILL BRING YOU BACK HOME TO US SOMEDAY.""
THE FIRST TIME I SAW MY DADDY CRY
HE WAS STANDING BY THE ROAD WAVIN' GOODBYE
AND HE SAID SON,
ALL ROADS LEAD HOME
Chorus-I THOUGH WE MAY BE MILES APART
JUST FOLLOW YOUR HEART
AND AS LONG AS THESE MEMORIES LIVE ON
ALL ROADS LEAD HOME
ONE YEAR STATE SIDE, TWO YEARS IN IRAQ
SEEMS DAD HAD AGED FIFTEEN YEARS WHEN I CAME BACK
AND THAT GIRL DOWN THE STREET WHEN I LEFT WAS JUST A KID
I COULDN'T BELIEVE SHE'D GROWN UP THE WAY SHE DID
FOURTEEN DAYS WENT BY IN THE BLINK OF AN EYE
SHE SAID SHE LOVED ME THE NIGHT WE SAID GOODBYE
NOW I'M LYIN' HERE ALONE IN THE BAGHDAD NIGHT
AND I'VE GOT ONE MORE REASON NOW TO GO AND FIGHT
CAUSE I KNOW
ALL ROADS LEAD HOME
THOUGH WE MAY BE MILES APART
I'LL JUST FOLLOW YOUR HEART
AND AS LONG AS THESE MEMORIES LIVE ON
ALL ROADS LEAD HOME
(FIDDLE SOLO)
Chorus - I
SIX THOUSAND LONELY MILES APART
THEY'RE ALL RIGHT HERE IN MY HEART
AND AS LONGS AS THESE MEMORIES LIVE ON
ALL ROADS LEAD HOME
I'M COMIN' HOME,.. I'M COMIN' HOME,.. I'M COMIN' HOME
ALL ROADS LEAD HOME
