I've been on the road so long

This is all I can afford to give

Just a sad and lonely battlesong

Of a soldier marching in the war to live

Pick 'em up and put 'em down

My soul's worn thinner than my smile

These boots were made to cover ground

I think I'd like to lay 'em down awhile

You won't let the sun go down again

You remind me who I've always been

Just a hometown hero coming back to be where I belong

No more battlesongs

Worn and weary here I stand

Your open arms are all I'm longing for

I leave behind the foreign lands

So glad to finally wash up on your shore

You won't let the sun go down again

You remind me who I've always been

Just a hometown hero coming back to be where I belong

No more battlesongs

No more battlesongs

I see buildings houses down the street

Friendly strangers where we used to meet

And it feels like a reunion of the souls I'll greet someday

All the ones I passed along the way

I am coming

Coming home

I am coming

Coming home

I am coming

Coming home

You won't let the sun go down again

You remind me who I've always been

Just a hometown hero coming back to be where I belong

You won't let the sun go down again

You remind me who I've always been

Just a hometown hero coming back to be where I belong

No more battlesongs

No more battlesongs

No more battlesongs
