Lyrics:

home oh from the party
And the good folks just got up

Crooked delegation wants a big donation
Send some old jive preacher to the holy land
Lord honey,
rolling 'round with these reptiles
Dropouts, stepchilds
Who got no love for they old folks
And try to rob tourists at Wet 'n Wilds
And that's wild very few
Country fried, baptized in gravy
I can't wash off what the good Lord made ya
No matter how far that highway goes
An old dirt road'll get you home
The old folks don't talk much
They talk so slowly when they do
They are rich, they are poor
Their illusions are gone, they share one heart for two
take me home

I say bye to my folks as I pack my clothes
Mama don't cry, I was born to go
You gon' see my name in the big city lights
And daddy, you
on Ventura where the homie Hughlan lived 
Knew that we would do it big fresh up out the foster home
When the city take you in you know you really got a home 
I
The old folks don't talk much
They talk so slowly when they do
They are rich they are poor
Their illusions are gone
They share one heart for two
Wearing white clothes, God bless Nas' mother
I said we all coming home
God's sons and God's daughters
We all got a place (Yes)
And if you feel forgotten,
Oh, the sun shines bright on my old Kentucky home
'Tis summer, the old folks are gay
Where the corn top's ripe and the meadow's in the bloom
While
Hold on now, don't die now, be strong now
He said, I was born a crack baby
In a plastic bag in the alley
Raised in a foster home
With no mother
a creature, man, I swear that shit a monster
We gon' off his mama, now that nigga is a foster
Fuckin with my team, put her on a roster
Feds askin' questions, I
The sun shines bright in the old Kentucky home
'Tis summer, the folks here are gay
The corn top's ripe and the meadow's in the bloom
While the birds
cars like I applied for Nascar
Cut off everything old just like my Last broad
They ain't got to see it believe
Money gone talk 
And once they pass me
painted 
All those memories locked in my head
Will never be faded 
It was middle of night when I was watching my home get raided
Foster care treated me like
house, it's straight up the road
And I was the man of the house, the oldest
So my shoulders carried the weight of the load
Then Nate got taken away by
Then Nate got taken away by the state at eight years old
And that's when I realized you were sick and it wasn't fixable or changeable
And to this day
home,
For the old Kentucky home far away. 

They hunt no more for the 'possum and the coon,
On meadow, the hill and the shore,
They sing no more by
by the Swanee.
The folks up north will see me no more
When I get to that Swanee shore.

(whistling)
I miss the old folks at home.

Swanee, how I
there by the name of William Brown.
I served my master faithfully for seven long years or more
Till I shipped aboard The Ocean Queen belonging to Tramore.
it ain't easy)
Ask my folks, just ask my folks
And I won't blame it on the rain
(Don't blame it on the rain)
I can make it through the pain
I can always see
Some anvil carrying me
And when momentum gains
It takes me on its way

For the orphan's got another home
And the old man's got
love you 
My dear old Swanee! 
I'd give the world to be among the folks in 
D-I-X-I
Even now my mammy's waiting for me 
Praying for me, down by
love you 
My dear old Swanee! 
I'd give the world to be among the folks in 
D-I-X-I
Even now my mammy's waiting for me 
Praying for me, down by
by the Swanee.
The folks up north will see me no more
When I get to that Swanee shore.

(whistling)
I miss the old folks at home.

Swanee, how I
