When I left my father's house
I was well supplied
I made a mistake and I [bad word] I'm dissatisfied

I believe I'll go back home
I believe I'll go back home
I believe I'll go back home
Acknowledge I done wrong

I'll go back my father's house
I'll fall down on my face
Say that I'm unworthy
And see concern its place

I'll go back my father's house
the place I love so dear
there they have food to eat
And I'm a-starving here

I believe I'll go back home
I believe I'll go back home
I believe I'll go back home
Acknowledge I done wrong

Father saw [bad word] He met him with a smile
Threw his arms around him
Said this is my wandering child

Father said to his servant
Go kill the fattest cow
Invite friends and relatives
My [bad word] home at last

I believe I'll go back home
I believe I'll go back home
I believe I'll go back home
Acknowledge I done wrong

I believe I'll go back home
I believe I'll go back home
I believe I'll go back home
Acknowledge I done wrong

I believe I'll go back home
I believe I'll go back home
I believe I'll go back home
Acknowledge I done wrong
