A long time ago I left my home For a job in the fruit trees But I miss those hills with the windy pines Their song seemed to suit me
So I sent my wages to my home Said we'd soon be together For the next good crop would pay my way And I'd come home forever
[Chorus] One more dime to show for my day One more dollar and I'm on my way When I reach those hills, boys, I'll never roam 'Cause one more dollar and I'm going home
No work said the boss at the bunkhouse door There's a freeze on the branches So when the dice came out at the bar downtown I rolled and I took my chances
[Chorus]
A long time ago I left my home Just a boy passing twenty Could you spare a coin and a Christian prayer For my luck has turned against me
[Chorus]
One more dollar, boys, I'm going homeTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
