Home is where I'm goin'
No matter how long it takes
And I've been livin' high and free, love
It's time for me to try another way
I think I'll send her a postcard
So she can meet my plane
Well, I don't know what I'll say to her
I've caused her so much pain
Houston, I'ma comin' to see you
Houston, has it really been that long?
I know I've been away
But I'm just callin' to tell you I'm leavin' today
Sittin' here in San Francisco
Lord, I'm tryin' to get more pay
You know it's good to hear your voice again
You say the words I like to hear you say
Now I'm tryin' to read your letter
It's been almost a year
It did me good to get away from you
Now I'm wishin' you were here
Houston, I'ma comin' to see you
Houston, has it really been that long?
I know I've been away
But I'm just callin' to tell you I'm leavin' today
Houston, I'ma comin' to see you
Houston, has it really been that long?
Houston, Houston, Houston
Houston, has it really been that long?
Houston, Houston, Houston
Houston, Houston, Houston
