Don’t Take It Back lyrics
by The Hillbilly Thomists
[Verse 1]
This plot, these walls
I know what I know
It's not much, but I love
My home is still home
People go looking for Babylon
When they're Canaan bound
And out here on the borderline
There's a path I've found
[Chorus]
It's an exit, it's a return
It's a rambling track
Set your feet down
And your heart upon a better home
And don't take it back!
[Verse 2]
My family tree
It's no grand oak
Dogwood on the forest edge
I know what I know what I know
People look back to Cairo
Like a dream relived
What is this fire and what is this bread
That you're feeding me with?
[Chorus]
It's an exit, it's a return
It's a rambling track
Sеt your feet down
And your heart upon a better homе
And don't take it back!
[Verse 3]
It's no black-top
It's crush and run
This way I'm traveling on
I know what I know what I know what, I-
People get lost in the lights below
While the stars above
Shine upon a farther shore
A better home
[Chorus]
It's an exit, it's a return
It's a rambling track
Set your feet down
And your heart upon a better home
And don't take it back!
Don't take it back!
Set your heart upon a better home
And don't take it back!
Don't take it back!
Don't take it back!
[Outro]
Set your heart upon a better home
And don't take it back!
