Chorus
Hurryin’ home, hurryin’ home;
Don’t the time go slower and slower
When you’re hurryin’ home?
Friendless old road, endless old road;
Don’t the hills get higher and higher
When you’re hurryin’ home?
In your ears you hear your mother’s lullaby,
And it makes you wish you had the wings to fly.
Longing gets stronger, stronger and stronger.
Don’t the miles get longer and longer
When you’re hurryin’ home?
2. Home sweet home is nearer and nearer,
Still you feel you’re further away.
Home sweet home is dearer and dearer.
It’s a year you spend ev’ry day;
Performance
