Lead me home

Rolling deep, the waters flow

Ever on, to fertile valleys

Rolling deep, the waters flow
Lead me home, lead me home.

I was once so proud and brave
I believed in god and glory

I am now a broken man

Lead me home, lead me home…

I was taken in my prime, 

I was promised land and freedom
But what waited was a lie,
Lead me home, lead me home.

Rolling deep, the waters flow,
Ever on, to fertile valleys,

Rolling deep, the water flows,
Lead me home, lead me home.

I once love, and left behind

My true love and my family

For to stand among the ranks

Lead me home, lead me home

I believed my spirit strong
And my heart was pure and righteous

But I lost it in the firght,

Lead me home, lead me home.

Rolling deep, the waters flow,
Ever on, to fertile valleys,

Rolling deep, the water flows,
Lead me home, lead me home.

Once a boy, so bright was I

Once a man of strength and virtue

Once a soldier proud and brave

Lead me home, lead me home.

I’m no longer proud and pure

No longer young and strong
I look upon these bloody hands

Lead me home, lead me home.

Rolling deep, the waters flow,
Ever on, to fertile valleys,

Rolling deep, the water flows,
Lead me home, lead me home.

Rolling deep the river flow

The raging mississippi
Never Jordan shall I know,
Lead me home. Take me home.
