Roy Drusky - Thumbin' My Way Home lyrics

One suitcase a heartache and a roadmap I'm headin' east just out of San Antone

Comin' my way home to West Virginia they're wonderin' why I stayed away so long

Got a letter from mama in my pocket she wrote to tell me dad had done passed all

One suitcase a heartache and a roadmap a lonely man just thumbin' my way home

Thumbin' my way home to West Virginia a broken heart inside a lonesome man

Maybe I can help to ease mom's heartaches and I'll try to help her understand

Gonna take the job that dad left in the coalmines

And stay with mom so she won't belong

I'll make up for ten long years of roamin' that's why I'm thumbin' my way home

Yes that's why I'm thumbin' my way home
