One in a million in a lonely town

Two hundred people trying to keep me down

I've taken all I can, I ain't lookin' back

Small town boy in a back yard lot

Can't make a living with the luck I've got

I'm gonna leave it all, I ain't looking back



That's the way I remember, it seemed to me when I was young

But I can still see the leaves slowly fall to the ground

And the snow on the trees as the winter comes down

Still I go home again in my heart



My father worked hard on the railroad track

37 Years cut across his back

He gave it all he had for what he believed

Like every other kid that came before

I grew up believing there was something more

And I still believe, I still believe



That's the way I remember, it seemed to me when I was young

But I can still see the leaves slowly fall to the ground

And the snow on the trees as the winter comes down

Still I go home again in my heart



But I can still see the lightning on a warm summer night

And the rain on the roof when I close my eyes

I can still hear us laughing on the front porch in the dark

There are days when I know that I've traveled so far

That I'll never find the road leading back to the start

Still I go home again in my heart

Still I go home again in my heart

In my heart, in my heart
