Lyrics
It’s a long, long journey, from where we began
From the deep south, country back roads
In our one room country shack
Mama’s in the kitchen with the light on inside
Makin us some biscuits before the sunrise
Ignorance is sometimes its own reward
Mama never told us we were poor
Ease, ease on, ease on
Ease on your way
Back home sometime
Ease, ease on, ease on
Ease on your way
Back home sometime
Oh, these times, we remember
That keep us on the ground
And maybe, just for comfort
We leave these memories layin’ round
Storms would come round in the middle of the night
Cuttin’ thru the country killin’ everything in sight
Mama would pray and hold her boys real tight
And tell us “Listen to me baby, everything’s gonna be alright”
Ease, ease on, ease on
Ease on your way
Back home sometime
Ease, ease on, ease on
Ease on your way
Back home sometime
It’s a long, long journey, from where we began
From the deep south country back roads
In our one room country shack
These are the memories from another time
When everybody was livin’ on nickels and dimes
I sing this song for my people whose work is never done
For my mother, my brothers, my Father John
Ease, ease on, ease on
Ease on your way
Back home sometime
Ease, ease on, ease on
Ease on your way
Back home sometime
You gotta ease, ease, ease
Back home sometime
