Leavin' the ground tonight
Tradin' these Chicago lights for fireflies
A couple fives in my pocket
A couple whiskey's might just stop these
Wheels of mine from spinnin' all the time
I've been runnin' so fast
Now I'm runnin' out of gas
I got nothin' left

Yeah, I'm goin' home
Yeah, I'm goin' home
To my Montgomery

Somewhere between Birmingham and Mobile, Alabama
She waits for me
She knows that I start feelin' summer nights and
One look from those wild eyes
Is gonna set me free (is gonna set me free)
I can't wait to touch down
'Cause I need her touch now
She's where I belong

Yeah, I'm goin' home
Yeah, I'm goin' home
To my Montgomery

That's where I'm goin'
That's where I'm goin'
That's where I'm goin'
To my Montgomery

That's where I'm goin'
That's where I'm goin'
That's where I'm goin'
To my Montgomery

Wait for me, wait for me (wait for me, wait for me)
Oh, wait for me, wait for me (oh wait for me, wait for me)
Oh, wait for me, wait for me (oh wait for me, wait for me)
Oh, wait for me, wait for me
Wait for me, wait for me

Yeah, I'm goin' home
Yeah, I'm goin' home
To my Montgomery

Leavin' the ground tonight
Tradin' these Chicago lights for fireflies
