[00:07.047]Now you country fools in your one horse town you can laugh at me
[00:14.301]It's plain as rain that you've never been down to the southern sea
[00:21.162]To see me now is like watching a fish on dry land
[00:27.994]I only wish you could see me down in the islands
[00:34.962]Mister that's my home
[00:37.953]What a fool I was to leave the only happiness I've known
[00:52.048]You see me coming you wink your eye and call me captain Jim
[00:58.543]And when I don't do nothin' but walk on
[01:01.244]By you say baby get a load of him
[01:06.149]All I need is the sea and the sky and I know where I stand
[01:12.569]Instead of you hicks straight out of the sticks deciding I ain't a man
[01:20.116]You'll never understand
[01:23.315]Up here I'm just a whisky bum but down there I'm a king
[01:29.862]Sounds just like the angels up in heaven
[01:34.572]When they sing
[01:36.315]Welcome home welcome home
[01:45.278]Such a sight to see
[01:47.562]Instead of some Salvation Army sister
[01:52.385]Singing nearer my god to thee
[02:01.232]Now I know that Yankee whisky has taken away my mind
[02:08.192]And I know that rum is the only drink suitable to mankind
[02:15.289]And I know this tree I'm under is shaped entirely wrong
[02:22.421]I need to see a gentle palm tree and I won't wait too long
[02:29.218]I can feel that it's coming on strong
[02:32.682]The first cold wind of winter is flapping in my clothes
[02:39.823]Showing me the way with the direction that it blows
[02:46.232]Welcome home welcome home
[02:51.671]Let it blow
[02:53.083]Welcome home welcome home welcome home
[03:08.315]Such a sight to see
[03:11.117]Instead of some Salvation Army sister
[03:16.283]Singing nearer my god to thee
[03:24.281]Let me hear it
[03:25.466]Coming
[03:31.981]Welcome home welcome home welcome home welcome home
