Lyrics
I'm on the road baby i'm doing my job, i think about you all the time it keeps me working real hard. times a getting near, yeah it won't be long, my work will be over and i'll have sung my good night song and i'll be, heading on home to you, just you wait and see, that knock on the door will be me, and i'll be, heading on home to you, so, let out the cat ,settle on back, kick off your shoes, i'm heading on home to you.
I've been gone baby from your side much too long, in my mind i see yo every time i sing a love song. your the only one girl, who can get me high, it's been your love for all these years that's gotten me by, baby and I'm heading on home to you, just you wait and see, that knock on the door will be me, and i'll be, heading on home to you, so let out the cat settle on back, kick off your shoes i'm heading on home to you.
I pack away my gear, finish my last beer, i think of us together again i know the time is drawing near, when i see the lights of my home town coming in sight, i know you'll be waiting at the door any time of the day or night and i'm ,heading on home to you, just you wait and see, that knock on the door will be me, and i'll be, heading on home to you, so, let out the cat, settle on back, kick off your shoes, i'm heading on home to you.
I said just you wait and see, that knock on the door will be me, and i'll be, heading on home to you.
