E A
My mama showed me how to rock in the cradle
But I learned how to roll along
My papa said, son, gotta get some fun
'Cause when your old it ain't too good on your own
E
Been so long since you heard my song
Gonna pick up my guitar and play
Felt so bad when I had to leave you
But I knew that I'd be back some day
C D
So I'm comin' home
E
To give you more than you bargained for
C D E
Comin' home
No mistake I'm gonna shiver and shake
C D
Comin' home
E
Gonna rock and roll and give you my soul
C
Comin' home
E
I got over the pain I'm comin' home again
(Verse 2)
Groovin' to American Bandstand
B B onstage with Lucille
The thrill is gone, but it won't be for long
'Cause you know I like to play how you feel
Now that we're back together
Gonna shiver and shake all night
I just gotta say the music I play
Will sure 'nough make you feel alright
(Verse 3)
Though I learned how to rock in the cradle
And rollin' came so easy to me
From all the years I travelled the world
Made it all so clear to see
Been so long since you heard my song
Gonna pick up my guitar and play
Felt so bad when I had to leave you
But I knew that I'd be back some day
Comin' home
To give you more than you bargined for
Comin' home
No mistake I'm gonna shiver and shake
Comin' home
Gonna rock and roll and give you my soul
Comin' home
I got over the pain I'm comin' home again
Comin' home
Shiver and shakin' anticpatin'
Comin' home
The thrill is gone but it won't be for long
