WORDS & MUSIC BY LOU PENTA (c) 2009

[VERSE]
I'M GOING HOME, I'M GOING BACK
TO WHERE MY COUNTRY, HEART BELONGS
I'M LEAVIN TODAY, I HEAR MY HOME TOWN CALLIN
A WHISTLE CRYS, AS I BOARD THE TRAIN

[HOOK / HARMONY]
I'M GOING HOME, TO WHERE MY ROOTS, ARE PLANTED DEEP
THERE'S A RIGHT AND A WRONG, AND A PROMISE IS AN OATH YOU KEEP LOVE MAKES YOU RICHER, THAN ANY MONEY IN BANK
I'M HEADED BACK TO STAY, AND LIVE MY LIFE, THE GOOD OLD WAY
I'M GOING HOME:::::::::::::

[VERSE]
I STARTED YOUNG, A REBEL FROM HELL
I KNEW IT ALL AT, SEVENTEEN
MY THUMB IN THE AIR, MY LIFE WAS MOVIN FORWARD
I BLEW OUTTA TOWN, ON A WING AND A PRAYER

[HOOK / HARMONY]
I'M GOING HOME, TO WHERE MY ROOTS ARE PLANTED DEEP
THERE'S A RIGHT AND A WRONG, AND A PROMISE IS AN OATH YOU KEEP
LOVE MAKES YOU RICHER, THAN ANY MONEY IN THE BANK
I'M HEADED BACK TO STAY, AND LIVE MY LIFE, THE GOOD OLD WAY
I'M GOING HOME:::::::::::::HOME::::::::::::::::::: :::::::::::::::::I'M GOIN BACK

[SOLO] *****************************************************************************

[BRIDGE / SPOKEN]
LOOKING FOR SOMETHING, I JUST COULD FIND
TILL A POSTCARD, FROM AN OLD FRIEND OF MINE
THE PICTURE OF MY TOWN , TOOK ME BACK TO MY START
MY SEARCHIN WAS OVER, IT WAS THERE IN MY HEART
( HOOK SECOND HALF )
LOVE MAKES YOU RICHER, THAN ANY MONEY IN THE BANK
I'M HEADED BACK TO STAY, AND LIVE MY LIFE, THE GOOD OLD WAY
I'M GOIN HOME::::::::: HOME::::::::::::::::I'M GOING BACK

RAINFIRE MUSIC B.M.I.

This song has a wonderful melody which is bright and uplifting and nicely compliments the excitement of going home. Great vocal performance. Great arrangement, instrumental performances and broadcast quality recording. There are some nice lyrical images. Great feel-good vibe.
