Blues outside my window, blues out my back door
I got one hand stretched to heaven and my feet stuck to the floor
Well, I'm waiting on the sunrise, so cold and all alone
Come the light of day, I'm gonna make my way
Get up, get ready to go back home
Get up, get ready to go back home
Get up, get ready to go back home
Get up, get ready to go back home
Snakes down in my barley, rats all in my corn
People try to deal me dirty since the day that I was born
Well, these hard times weigh so heavy and I'm only flesh and bone
But come rain or shine, I'm moving down the line
Get up, get ready to go back home
Get up, get ready to go back home
Get up in the morning to go back home
Get up, get ready to go back home
ย
Well, I'm gonna see my family, I'm gonna see my friends
I'm gonna see my savior when this old highway finally ends
Well, I hear their voices calling, I don't need no telephone
Gonna heave this sack right across my back
Get up, get ready to go back home
Get up, get ready to go back home
Get up, get ready to go back home
Get up, get ready to go back home
Got to be ready to go back home
Got to be ready to go back home
Got to be ready, ooh, get ready
There's a train a-coming
Got to be ready to go back home
Oh, you got to be ready to go back home
To go back home, ooh, got to go back home
One of these mornings, y'all, got to go back home
Got to be ready to go back home
Home, home
