Michael English
The Prodigal Son
I left in search of fame and fortune
Blinded by the city lights
Heartaches, Lord, I've had my portion
In a way it serves me right

Guess I had to learn my lesson
This one thing I do believe
No material possession
Is worth more than family

Restless souls are prone to wonder
Mama, leave the porch light on
'Cause the grass ain't greener over yonder
Now the prodigal son is coming home

Let us sit down at the table
Hear my daddy say the gracе
For these blessings wе are grateful
Light our path, show us the way

Restless souls are prone to wonder
Mama, leave the porch light on
'Cause, the grass ain't greener over yonder
Now the prodigal son is coming home

Restless souls are prone to wonder
Mama, leave the porch light on
Oh, the grass ain't greener over yonder
The prodigal son is coming home
Coming home
The prodigal son is finally home
