Home in the Hollow

Whispers on the wind Calling me back Barefoot in the fields Where the wild grass is swaying Mama's hands in the soil Turning earth into day Daddy's stores dancing tall We chase the summer lightning Never fearing the fall Oh, the river runs deep Through the valleys I know Carries my heart Where the old oak trees grow the miles Oh, the years and mays that may pass It calls me at last Oh, the years and mays that may pass Oh, the river runs deep Through the valleys I know Carries my heart Where the old oak trees grow No matter the miles Or the years that may pass Pass homes in the hollow It calls me at last One day I'll wander no more Lay my burdens down One day I'll wander no more Lay my burdens down Feel the rum on my face And that familiar town Roots run forever Beneath the air Endless sky In the quiet of evening I won't say Oh, the river runs deep Through the valleys I know Carries my heart Where the old oak trees grow Oh, the river runs deep Through the valleys I know Carries my heart Where the old oak trees grow No matter the miles Or the years that may pass Pass homes in the hollow It calls me at last Whispers on the wind Carry me home to my home Carry me home to my home Carry me home to my home Carries my heart Carries my heart Carries my heart Carries my heart Carries my heart
