The dog was home when you left

The cat was home when you left

The fish was home when you left

Your right

Your daddy, your mama, your brother

Your sister, the dog, the cat, the fish was home when you left

Your right

And that's the reason you left

Your right

I left my home, to join the army, to join the army

I left my home, I left my home

To join the army, to join the army

The day I left

My momma cried

She thought that I

Would surely Die

I left my wife

Cryin at the door

She knew that I

Would die at war

I left my son

Playin in the yard

To see his daddy leave

Made him cry so hard

The day I left

I shook my daddy's hand

He said that I

Had become a man

Oowie oowiee, oowie oowiee

Oowie oowiee, oowie oowiee

To join the army, to join the army

I left my home, I left my home

To join the army, to join the army

I left my home, I left my home

To join the army, to join the army

The day I left

My momma cried

She thought that I

Would surely Die

I left my wife

Cryin at the door

She knew that I

Would die at war

The day i left

I shook my daddy's hand

He said that I

Had become a man

I left my home

To join the army

I left my home

To join the army

I LEFT MY HOME
