Oh, never again will I go wandering far away." The person that sang it for me said it could be "roaming" instead of "wandering". Any help would be appreciated. Take Care Merle |

Never oh never again will I go wandering far away.'" I wonder if you could contact the author of the story? maeve |

I have no idea how to contact the author right now. In fact, I find their site very hard to read. I've only been searching for a couple of days. So, I'll give it a while and if nothing comes of it, I'll see if I can contact the author of that post. Take Care Merle |

I'm going back to where I belong. I've come a long, long way; I've traveled night and day, and in my heart there's a lonely song. Another mile or two and I'll be passing through another field of tall, golden corn. And if my memory's true, beneath the sky of blue, I'll see the old house where I was born. And I'll be hugging pa and kissing ma and sis and little brother, and we'll laugh with one another and we'll say remember when And then I'll hear that sound That happy sound of friends Who come and meet me Gather round to see and greet me again. I'm coming home and home I will stay. Never oh never again will I go wandering far away |

Here's my transcription: HOMECOMING WALTZ (Joan Whitney & Alex Kramer) Down the road, I'm coming down the road. I'm going back to where I belong. I've come a long, long way; I've traveled night and day, 'Cause in my heart there's a lonely song. Another mile or two and I'll be passing through Another field of tall, golden corn.
