Lyrics
The Good Earth
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
You know what the others know
Seven years stay at home
Talk about the old fun
People never listen hard
I can't stay
It's got to be that way
Can't be alone
I guess that you know
Many times I heard you say
Try and last just one more day
Listen to the rain again
Trying hard to understand
I can't stay
It's got to be that way
Can't be alone
I guess that you know
I can't get along
Take me back where I belong
I've been gone too long
Take me back
I can't get along
Take me back to my home
Seven years way too long
Call me up and I'll be gone
I can't stay
It's got to be that way
Can't be alone
I guess that you know
I can't get along
Take me back where I belong
Been gone way too long
Take me back to my home
I can't get along
Got to get back there where I belong
Got to get back baby back to my home
Back to the place where I belong
Can I get back?
O Can I get back?
