“Homebound Train” Bon Jovi Lyrics

When I was just a boy
The devil took my hand
Took me from my home
He made me a man
So, don’t talk to me about sympathy now
Cause you can’t dance if you
Take a chance on your rosary

I’m going down, down, down, down, down
On the homebound train

It’s been a millions years
That I been gone
I been everywhere, now I’m heading home
Been a lot of girls, but
There’s a woman I know
Said don’t take no plane
Better take a train
Cause I like it real slow

All the way back home
On the homebound train
I’m going down, down, down, down, down
On the homebound train

[Solo]

I’m on my way
I’m heading home
To be with my baby
Where I belong
Coming down the tracks now
See, I done my time
I’m going back now
To that home of mine
Well, here I come baby

Here I come baby
Here I come baby

All the way back home
On that homebound train
I’m going down, down, down, down, down
On that homebound train
