Gonna Get Back Home Somehow

download

(Pomus / Schuman)

Information:
Elvis recorded this Doc Pomus-Mort Shuman song on March 18, 1962, at RCA’s Nashville studios.

Lyrics:

Hear that old train whistle howlin' in the night
If that flyer's southbound things will be all right
I'm leavin' now, leavin' now, leavin' now,
I'm gonna get back home somehow

Don't nobody tell me baby's been untrue
If she's been unfaithful don't know what I'll do
Leavin' now, leavin' now, leavin' now
I'm gonna get back home somehow

1. Never thought that I could miss her so
I never thought I could but now I know
The sound of the old train whistle makes me want to cry
Reminds me of that lonely feeling when we said goodbye

2. Leavin' now, leavin' now, leavin' now
I'm gonna get back home somehow

1. 2. (repeat)
