lyrics

Homesick
Written by Ruby Bird, Published by Bonk Zone Music ASCAP ©2021

Sitting on the back porch laughing
Watching the daylight passing
Weren’t it great to live this life in style?
You can have your big old city
Neon lights are kinda pretty, but
I’d much rather see the open sky

Someday I’ll find a place that’s mine
But I get homesick all the time

My trees weren’t in a park
Safe to walk after dark
Seems as though I had a simpler life
My animals weren’t in a zoo
What’s in a zoo is you
When you’re caged in by walls on every side

I know I’ll find my place in time
But I get homesick all the time

I pound the pavement for a better place to stay
Someplace that feels like home
But running, building, crowding everywhere I turn
I only feel more alone

Been so long since I’ve seen your face
You bright wide open space
And I am gonna see you again someday
Right now my money is tight
Can’t seem to do anything right
“Maybe next year” is all I seem to say

I still get homesick every day
But…I know someday I’ll find my way
