Eatin' strawberry pie in a mid-town diner

Next thing you know you're back in South Carolina

Stuffin' your mouth at Grandma's house



Then a lady in a booth gets onto her kids

Lays down the law like your mama did

And it makes you smile 'cause every once in a while



We all go home to a place and a time

In our hearts and our minds

That we just can't outgrow



There's a tie that'll bind you

And love that'll find you

No matter where you go

Someday, someway we all go home



You tell yourself the grass is greener

That Podunk town ain't the place for a dreamer

Throw a dart at a map and you don't look back



Try to change your clothes and the way you talk

One day you slip on that Southern drawl

And you have to laugh, yeah, just like that



We all go home to a place and a time

In our hearts and our minds

That we just can't outgrow



There's a tie that'll bind you

And love that'll find you

No matter where you go

Someday, someway we all go home



The choir sings and the preacher talks

Six of your old friends take you for a walk

Up that shady hill, yeah, someday they will



We all go, we all go home



There's a tie that'll bind you

And love that'll find you

No matter where you go

Someday, someway we all go home



We all go home

We all go home

We all go home

We all go home
