Sometimes I don't recognize,<br />

sometimes i don't recognize<br />

he house I live in,<br />

or the street that my house is on<br />

<br />

Sometimes I don't recognize, <br />

sometimes i don't recognize <br />

the patterns on my shirt <br />

or the way my shoes are tied<br />

<br />

we know the way things go down,<br />

we know a lot of people, <br />

for people in a small town <br />

we know a lot of people<br />

we know the way things go down<br />

<br />

Sometimes I don't recognize, <br />

that leads me to be surprised, <br />

on my way home I'm walkin' home <br />

for the first time<br />

<br />

Sometimes I don't sympathize <br />

with all the sick and the tired, <br />

whats in it being a bum, <br />

whats in it being admired,<br />

<br />

Some street go up, some go down<br />

and it's just too much trouble, <br />

we know the smells and the sound, <br />

we know a lot of people,<br />

we know the way things go down<br />

<br />

well I can fight like the devil <br />

or do what I'm told, <br />

but one of these days momma <br />

I've got to hit the road, <br />

on my way home<br />

<br />

Sometimes I don't recognize, <br />

sometimes i don't recognize <br />

the house I live in, <br />

or the street that my house is on<br />

<br />

Sometimes I don't recognize, <br />

that leads me to be surprised, <br />

on my way home I'm walkin' home <br />

for the first time<br />

<br />

Some street go up, some go down <br />

and it's just too much trouble, <br />

we know the way things go down, <br />

for people in a small town <br />

we pass a lot of people, <br />

we know the way things go down<br />

<br />

well I can fight like the devil <br />

or do what I'm told, <br />

but one of these days momma <br />

I've got to hit the road, <br />

on my way home<br />

<br />

I'm comin home <br />

I'm walkin home, coming home, <br />

thats where I'm goin....
