Subject: Lyr Req Going Back Home to my Dad
Jimmie Rodgers song I suppose, only know one verse, is there more?

I am thinking tonight of an old Southern town
And the best friend that I ever had
I'm tired and I'm weary from ramblin' around
I'm going back home to my Dad
Your hair has turned to silver
I know you miss me too
Daddy dear, O Daddy
I'm coming home to you!

(Refrain?) You made my boyhood happy
But still I longed to roam
I've had my way, but now I'll stay
I long for you and for home.

That's all I know...appreciate any additional words!
