Floyd Westerman lyrics 'Goin' Back'
Goin’ back to there the land I love
I’m goin’ back to where the truth began
Back to the land I left behind
Back to the pride that I must find
Leave me alone
Can’t you see I’m goin’ home
Goin' back, and there I'm gonna stay
Goin' back, to try and find a way
Back to the land I left behind
Back to the pride that I must find
Leave me alone
Can't you see I'm goin' home
Back to the mountains and the prairies
Back to the desert and the hills
