Soul of the Land That's Mine Lyrics & Tabs by Del Barber
Soul of the Land That's Mine
guitar chords lyrics
I’m heading back from the south my dear
Where the sun beats down all day
Where the Rio-Grand runs kind and slow
I’ve always traveled against that grain
I’ve never been a golden friend
I’ve never been fixed like stone
I’m a man who’s prone to wonder some
But Lord knows I know my way back home
I’ve let you down a hundred times
There will be a hundred more
Please keep a place in your warm, warm house
For a heart that’s big and sore
It’s raining in Memphis and there’s snow in Illinois
There’s sun over that cold border line
I need to feel that strong north wind
It’s raining in Memphis and there’s snow in Illinois
There’s sun over that cold border line
I need to feel that strong north wind
In the soul of the land that’s mine
I’ve let you down a hundred times
There will be a hundred more
Please keep a place in your warm, warm house
For a heart that’s big and sore
Home my dear bitter wind
Home my oldest friend
Home my first and only love
Home and native land
I’ve let you down a hundred times
There will be a hundred more
Please keep a place in your warm, warm house
For a heart that’s big and sore
