it’s a long way home

It’s a long way back home

lean on me sister

it’s a long way back home

lean on me brother

it’s a long way back home

lean on me stranger or friend

it’s a long way back home

take my hand that I​​ 

won’t get lost on the way

it’s a long way back home

and I don’t want​​ us​​ to miss the​​ 

gathering down home

it’s a long way back home

and I don’t want to be​​ 

left alone on the road

it’s a long way back home

so lean on me​​ 

and I will lean on you

so that we all make it​​ 

back​​ home.
