lyrics
I wasted my youth on pleasures and pursuits
Not a soul could ever say I didn't warn ya
I threw away my dime on women and on wine
From the Carolina's here to California
The day I turned away you said son now won't you stay
The worlds a meaner place than Carolina
I said father Ill be fine just give me what's mine
Got my money headed west to California
You took my restless heart and turned it around
You welcomed me back home now I'm safe and sound
Only you make all things new
Well the city it did shine like a drunken Paradise
And the money it did flow like the river Jordan
But when the credit lines went dry I left my old pathetic life
And I hopped a train headed back to Carolina
And I hung my head as my heart filled with dread
Thinking all my father would say is son I told ya
And when I stepped off the train I heard him call my name
He said son welcome home to Carolina
