Goin' home, he's goin' home

He'll be leavin', leavin' here today

Well if he don't leave now

Won't be goin' nowhere



Well home is where the heart is

Then my home's in New Orleans

Take me to that land of dreams

Lord, and if I don't leave now

I won't be goin' nowhere, nowhere



Goin' home

He's goin' home (yeah, yeah, yeah)

Yeah he leaving, leaving here today

Well if he don't go now

I won't be goin' nowhere



[(Instrumental- piano]



"Welcome to Dr. John"



[Instrumental- horn]



"Go to Chris Barber on Trombone, Chris Barber"



What you say

And what you do

Well it's times like that, then I'm tellin' you

Well if you don't leave now

I won't be goin' nowhere (nowhere, nowhere, said nowhere) Lord

And if I don't leave now, I won't be goin' nowhere

Yeah but don't leave now

I won't be goin' nowhere

(woo, yeah) yeah...
