Time for the singer
Time for the singer-boy to make his way back home
A prodigal, I've been distressed
This lonely child can't make it on his own
I've been traveling states away;
I've been playing in a bluegrass band
Now it's the coming home
Of the son and brother again
Time has slipped away
I don't know if I can play another tune
They want me to build single-handed
A road up to the moon
They only pay me nickles and dimes
In a game that I can never win
So it's the coming home
Of the son and brother again
It's been a long, long time
Since I've seen al of my family and friends
I want to hear them tell their stories
Tell 'em all about the places I have been
So open all your doors up wide
Invite all the neighbors in
For the coming home
Of the son and brother again
