          E          A         E
I'm going back, back home real soon 
                   E                     B7
I'm gonna see that gal the one I love so true
         A                      E
I think about her in the loving ways 
                     B                E   
You know it keeps me from wandering astray


When you've been gone for a month or two
It's hard to keep your mind and yourself to you
I'd like to roam all night and all day
But your sweet love keeps me from wandering astray

Steel solo

If you got a good gal one that loves you true
Don't you play around or this'll happen to you
You'll walk the floor and you'll moan and say 
I wish I never had wandered astray

God don't get me wrong I was red blooded as you
But what take the chance of bein' alone and blue
When I get home I'd like to hear her say 
I love you dear I'll never wander astray
