Sounds Like Home Lyrics

Oh yeah, sounds like home, baby
Yeah, sounds just like home, baby
Have you ever heard the long whistle of a freight train (yeah)
Rolling through the backwoods like a hurricane
Or the sound that the water makes
When it's running downstream toward a river bank
Or, or, or the sound of a rattlesnake
A quarter mile you can hear them through the canebrake
Where the alligators roam free
It's plain to see, that it sounds like home to me
Have you ever heard the sound of a long whistle blow?
Like-like-like-like, like the sound of a southern wind on the river flow
Sound like home, sound like home
Sound like home, sound like home
Sound like home to me, sound like home, sound like home
Sound like home, sound just like home to me
Sitting reminiscing chilling on the porch swing
Listen to the frog saying to the rhythm of the rain
We from the woods kicking we ain't never gonna change
Nothing like the sound of picking banjo strings
I hear it everywhere I go up and down the road
No country folk we getting down like it's about to blow
Hang around in small towns where I'm gonna be a family a man
Sound like home to me
Have you ever heard the long whistle of a freight train (yeah)
Rolling through the backwoods like a hurricane
Or the sound that the water makes
When it's running downstream toward a river bank?
Or, or, or the sound of a rattlesnake
A quarter mile you can hear them through the canebrake
Where the alligators roam free
It's plain to see, that it sounds like home to me
Have you ever heard the sound of a long whistle blow?
Like-like-like-like, like the sound of a southern wind on the river flow
Or the sound of a country church just up the road
Oh, yeah, that's what I know
Ain't nothing like the open sky watching a shooting star
Down here we grew up catching fire flies in a mason jar
While crickets start to shake the leg and sing a little song
Drop the beat and make it sweet, go ahead and sing along
Family outside, playin' yard full of kids
Nothin' like the sound of home, just like music to my ears
Amazing grace is what I found, and that's why I came
Ain't never heard no sweeter sound in Jesus name
Have you ever heard the long whistle of a freight train (yeah)
Rolling through the backwoods like a hurricane
Or the sound that the water makes
When it's running downstream toward a river bank?
Or, or, or the sound of a rattlesnake
A quarter mile you can hear them through the canebrake
Where the alligators roam free
It's plain to see, that it sounds like home to me
Have you ever heard the sound of a long whistle blow
Like the sound of a southern wind on the river flow
Or the sound of a country church just up the road
Oh yeah, that's what I know (that's what I know)
