I wanna go back to the riverside
To the place I was born
I wanna go back to the riverside
To the place I call home
You took me to the city
When I was very young
No friends and no photographs
A new life we'd just begun
And now I'm old enough to tell you
How I feel
This city life is not for me
I wanna go back to the riverside
To the place I was born
I wanna go back to the riverside
To the place I call home
You waited at home I know
For a man I knew well
Your face was so full of tears
You were quiet as well
But you'd made up your mind
That you'd had enough
And you said you had no time
So I guess things were tough enough
You took me to the city
When I was very young
No friends and no photographs
A new life we'd just begun
And now I'm old enough to tell you
How I feel
This city life is not for me
And now I'm old... old enough (x4)
Old enough to leave you
Don't want no more cities
I just wanna go home
So take me to the riverside
To the place I call home
Don't want no more cities
I just wanna go home
So take me to the riverside (x3)
To the place I call home (call home)
I wanna go back to the riverside (x2)
Don't want no more cities
I just wanna go home
