Well, I'm going back to my hometown
The familiar road that I know
To my mother, my sisters, my brother
To my father who misses me so
I was so far away that I'd forgotten
About the sweet smell of the fields and the rain
About the Saturday nights we'd all sing along
And play all these stupid games
Mm-mm-mm-mm-mm-mm
It's been three whole weeks that I'm back again
And I feel just like a hungry mad dog
As the doors of the wild world are closing
I am standing outside in the cold
I was so far away that I'd forgotten
About the sweet smell of the fields and the rain
About the Saturday nights we'd all sing along
And play all these stupid games
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
When it's wintertime, I need a hot summer's day
And when it's springtime, my heart longs
This cold breeze to stay
Whether I'm right or whether I'm wrong
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Well, it's been three whole weeks that I'm back again
And I feel just like a hungry mad dog
As the doors of the wild world are closing
I am standing outside in the cold
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
