Shout Hallelujah Cause I'm Home 1928

by James Pitt-Payne, London UK - 09 Jun 2005

Tomorrow morning,
when day is dawning,
and if it rains or shines,
I'll be on the trail
that leads me to home sweet home,
No one will meet me,
no one will greet me,
I haven't said a word.
But I'm on the trail
that leads me to home sweet home,
listen while I tell it to you,
here's the very thing that I'll do.

Run up the steps,
knock at the door!
Down on my knees,
kissin' the floor,
Shout Hallelujah!
'Cause I'm Home! Home!
Never to roam,
take off my coat,
take off my hat,
wind up the clock,
throw out the cat,
Shout Hallelujah!
'Cause I'm Home!
Back Home!
And ev'ry morning I'll be up with the sun.
Just like a kid that thinks of nothing but fun,
early to bed,
early to rise,
Heaven on Earth!
Under my eyes,
Shout Hallelujah!
'Cause I'm Home!
Back Home!

Run up the steps,
knock at the door!
Down on my knees,
kissin' the floor,
Shout Hallelujah!
'Cause I'm Home! Home!
Never to roam,
take off my coat,
take off my hat,
wind up the clock,
throw out the cat,
Shout Hallelujah!
'Cause I'm Home!
Back Home!
And ev'ry morning I'll be up with the sun.
Just like a kid that thinks of nothing but fun,
early to bed,
early to rise,
Heaven on Earth!
Under my eyes,
Shout Hallelujah!
'Cause I'm Home!
Back Home!

The whistle's blowing,
it means I'm going
back where I started from,
On a choochoo train
that carries me way down home,
my nerves are steady,
and I'm all ready,
I'll soon be on the way.
On a choochoo train
that carries me way down home,
I can't wait until I arrive,
watch me go if I''m still alive.

Run up the steps,
knock at the door!
Down on my knees,
kissin' the floor,
Shout Hallelujah!
'Cause I'm Home! Home!
Never to roam,
take off my coat,
take off my hat,
wind up the clock,
throw out the cat,
Shout Hallelujah!
'Cause I'm Home!
Back Home!
And ev'ry morning I'll be up with the sun.
Just like a kid that thinks of nothing but fun,
early to bed,
early to rise,
Heaven on Earth!
Under my eyes,
Shout Hallelujah!
'Cause I'm Home!
Back Home!

Run up the steps,
knock at the door!
Down on my knees,
kissin' the floor,
Shout Hallelujah!
'Cause I'm Home! Home!
Never to roam,
take off my coat,
take off my hat,
wind up the clock,
throw out the cat,
Shout Hallelujah!
'Cause I'm Home!
Back Home!
And ev'ry morning I'll be up with the sun.
Just like a kid that thinks of nothing but fun,
early to bed,
early to rise,
Heaven on Earth!
Under my eyes,
Shout Hallelujah!
'Cause I'm Home!
Back Home!
