Long Walk Home
Last night I stood at

your doorstep

Tryin' to figure out

what went wrong
You just slipped something

into my palm, and you
were gone-

I could smell the same,
deep green of summer

'Bove me the same night
sky was glowin'

In the distance I could
see the town where

I was born-

It's gonna be a long walk

home- Hey, pretty darlin'
don't wait up for me
gonna be a long walk home

a long walk home-

home- Hey, pretty darlin'
don't wait up for me
gonna be a long walk home

a long walk home-

In town I pass Sal's grocery
Barber shop on South St.

I looked in their faces

They're all rank strangers

to me-
Well, Veteran's Hall high

upon the hill

Stood silent and alone

The diner was shuttered
and boarded
With a sign thatjust

said, Gone

It's gonna be a long
walk home-

Hey, pretty darlin', don't

wait up for me

Gonna be a long walk home
Hey, pretty darlin', don't

wait up for me

It's gonna be a long

walk home
a long walk home
(Break) Here everybody

has a neighbor

Everybody has a friend
Everybody has a reason

to begin again
My father said, Son, we're

lucky in this town. It's a
beautiful place to be born.

It just wraps its arms

around you. Nobody

crowds you, and nobody
goes it alone.
The flag flyin' over the

courthouse- means

certain things are set
in stone-
Who we are, what we'll do

and what we won't-

lt's gonna be a long walk
home

Hey, pretty darlin'- don't

wait up for me

Gonna be a long walk home
It's gonna be a long walk

home

It's gonna be a long walk

home
Hey, pretty darlin'- don't

wait up for me

Gonna be a long walk

home
It's gonna be a long walk

home

It's gonna be a long walk

home...
