Prodigal
V1
I left my folks and I left my home
My older brother too
I stepped out
Gonna make it on my own
A foolish thing to do
My father gave us his fortune
That suited me just fine
Traveled far and spoiled myself
on wild women and wine
It didn't take long, about a month or two
Everything was gone
Now what am I gonna do
CH
I was far from home
My soul was twisted
Caught up in my selfishness
It's been so long
Thought I'd lost my family
Would they forgive my thoughtlessness
V2
There I was, not a penny to my name
Too tired to burn
Gettin' hungry
It's the middle of the night
No where else to turn
I gotta work to support my ways
And that's not easy to do
Break your back
It destroys your pride
When the hogs eat better than you
At the end of my rope
Can't wait another day
I headed for my home
What will my father say
CH
Welcome home, it's good to see you
Glad to have you back again
It's been so long and I have missed you
Welcome to your home again
BRIDGE
When I came to you
I thought you'd turn me away
But you opened up your heart and then asked me to stay.

CH
Welcome home, it's good to see you
Glad to have you back again
It's been so long and I have missed you
Welcome to your home again
Welcome Home
