[Verse]
Waiting for a ride by the edge of the road
With a brown paper bag that holds my clothes
Tonight I'm going home where I belong
Good lord willing and the creek don't rise
If my luck holds out and I catch a ride
When the sun goes down tomorrow, I should be home

[Chorus]
I'm going back to the people I love
Back to the place that I dream of
It's true that there's no place like home sweet home
The one I want to see the most
Is the one that begged me not to go
When the sun goes down tomorrow, I should be home

[Verse]
This big city ain't no kind of place
For a country girl with a friendly face
When you smile, people look at your funny, they take it wrong
They laugh at my talking and the clothes I wear
They put me down and they call me square
When the sun goes down tomorrow, I should be home

[Chorus]
I'm going back to the people I love
Back to the place that I dream of
It's true that there's no place like home sweet home
The one I want to see the most
Is the one that begged me not to go
When the sun goes down tomorrow, I should be home
[Chorus]
I'm going back to the people I love
Back to the place that I dream of
It's true that there's no place like home sweet home
The one I want to see the most
Is the one that begged me not to go
When the sun goes down tomorrow, I should be home
When the sun goes down tomorrow, I should be home
