I spent twenty years trying to get out of this place
I was looking for something I couldn't replace
I was running away from the only thing
I've ever known
Like a blind dog without a bone
I was a gypsy lost in the twilight zone
I hijacked a rainbow
and crashed into a pot of gold
I been there, done that,
I ain't looking back on the seeds I've sown
Saving dimes spending
too much time on the telephone
Who says you can't go home

Who says you can't go home
There's only one place
they call me one of their own
Just a hometown boy born a rolling stone
Who says you can't go home
Who says you can't go back
Been all around the world
and as a matter of fact
There's only one place left I want to go
Who says you can't go home

I went as far as I could,
I tried to find a new face
There isn't one of these lines that I would erase
I lived a million miles of memories on that road
With every step I take I know that I'm not alone
You take the home from the boy
but not the boy from his home

These are my streets,
the only life I've ever known
Who says you can't go home

Who says you can't go home
There's only one place
they call me one of their own
Just a hometown boy born a rolling stone
Who says you can't go home
Who says you can't go back
Been all around the world
and as a matter of fact
There's only one place left I want to go
Who says you can't go home

It doesn't matter where you are,
it doesn't matter where you go
If it's a million miles away
or just a mile up the road
Take it in, take it with you when you go
Who says you can't go home

Who says you can't go back
Been all around the world
and as a matter of fact
There's only one place left I want to go
Who says you can't go home
