Gotta Get Myself Back Home - Rare Earth

I’ll be alright in the morning

When I get myself back home

I been gone such a long long time

Gettin' weary bein' on my own

I just got to get myself back home

Back to the place I know I once belonged

Well I been workin', I’m a river man

Drivin' down the mighty river bed

An' after thirty-six days on a?

?

barge

You know a body gets in need of a friend

I just got to get myself back home

Back to the place I know I once belonged

My body’s achin' and the sun’s on my back

And the captain’s really bringing me down

My woman, she wrote, said she needs me tonight

And I’m hopin' we won’t be long

Well I just got to get myself back home, back home

You know I got to get back to the place I once belonged

Hey I’ve got to get back

I just got to get myself back home

Back to the place I know I once belonged

I know I once belonged

I just got to get myself back home

I wanna get home

Back to the place I know I once belonged
