Come home rollin' stone, 
Home where you belong ( belong, Oh! come . . . ) 
Oh! come home rollin' stone, 
You've been away too long! 

I wandered into Kansas a-singin' a song 
Singin' doodle-doo-day, all day! 
And then I got a feelin' that somethin' was wrong 
When a voice in my heart seemed to say . . . 

Come home rollin' stone, 
Home where you belong, belong, 
Oh! come home rollin' stone, 
You've been away too long! 

I left my love a-weepin' in old Arkansas 
Left her for the freight cars that passed 
But last night in a tavern, I swear that I saw 
Her face in a shimmering glass . . . 

( Come home rollin' stone, 
Home where you belong, belong, 
Oh! come home rollin' stone, 
You've been away too long . . . ) 

Now, when I hear that lonesome old train comin' near 
And the moon is over the track 
Oh somewhere from the shadows I know that I'll hear 
Her voice in the clickity clack! 

Oh come home rollin' stone, 
Home where you belong, belong, 
Oh! come home rollin' stone, 
You've been away too long . . . ( Come home . . . )
