I grew up in an urban town
The first time I heard
A guitar sound
My old man
Pickin' a song "Wildwood Flower"
I think it was called
He always said that we'd go back'
It always seemed
A matter of fact
Someday we'd leave this place
Back to a town far away
The pictures in his mind he tried to describe
Were all his dreams from another time
A little farm outside Coalgate
Stood a house he left
When he was eight
And ever since he left there
He said he's going back
And here life feels a little out of pace
Always dreaming 'about
That open space
And when he's in that deep, deep stare
I know he's going back to The Home Place
He worked the fields for a quarter a day
It went in his old man's pocket that's where it stayed
He loved singing
Country Western songs
Church on Sunday
Is where he belonged
He fell in love with a Chickasaw girl
From East Jesse, rocked his little world
He knew it wouldn't take long
Cause he was already gone
He would go back if he could
But it was heaven right where he stood
A little farm outside Coalgate
Stood a house he left
When he was eight
And ever since he left there
He said he's going back
And here life feels a little out of pace
Always dreaming 'about
That open space
And when he's in that deep, deep stare
I know he's going back to The Home Place
His father said I'm getting old
There's one last thing
Before I go
Take the old land
Take it off my hands
Maybe someday
You can hold
On to our past
Don't let it go
There's nothing there anyway
Still there's something to say
Everything in his heart he holds
Is right there he knows
A little farm outside Coalgate
Stood a house he left
When he was eight
And ever since he left there
He said he's going back
And here life feels a little out of pace
Always dreaming 'about
That open space
And when he's in that deep, deep stare
I know he's going back to The Home Place
One daydream away
And he's back in the day
He's going back to
The Home Place
