HOMECOMING WALTZ
(Joan Whitney / Alex Kramer)


Guy Lombardo & His Royal Canadians - 1949





Down the road, I'm comin' down the road
I'm goin' back to where I belong
I've come a long, long way, I've travelled night and day
'Cause in my heart there's a lonely song

Another mile or two and I'll be passing through
Another field of tall, golden corn
And if my mem'ry's true, beneath a sky of blue
I'll see the old house where I was born

And I'll be kissin' Ma and huggin' Pa 
And Sis and little Brother
And we'll laugh with one another
And we'll say, "Remember when"
And then I'll hear the sound, the happy sound
Of friends who've come to meet me
Gathered round to see and greet me again

I'm comin' home and home I will stay
Never, no never, again will I go wandering far away
I'm comin' home and home I will stay
Never, no never, again will I go wandering far away

(Orchestral Interlude)

I'm comin' home and home I will stay
Never, no never, again will I go wandering far away
