I'm flying across the ocean

and I'm soaring back home

to the place I was born and probably raised.

And I'm flying across the mountains and valleys,

back home to the one that I love so happily.



Can ya' blame me for feeling homesick

'cause I've been away such a very long long time?

I served a while in the county jail, five years for

For bein' hungry tired and poor, I got worried so.



On and on,

This I will follow with your buttons and bows.

On and on this I will follow, all alone,

you know I will follow with your buttons and bows,

On and on I'm flying across the ocean, going home.



I'm flying across the ocean

And I'm going. . .home
