Lyrics
(Mickie Merkens) I packed up my suitcase Pulled down my old bedroll And I started to wander Far from my home And the time it passed quickly And the days seemed to be hours Far from your city And Yarrington Town Well, I wandered through the midnights Of sea-bordered bar lights And I wandered through the forests As deep as the sea But I never got lonesome Until I'd hear a sad song One to remind me of Yarrington Town Well, I followed a miner To his home in the North woods And he promised to love me As long as I'd stay And I even saw lightning Touch a stone in the mine field Could not touch the lightning In Yarrington Town So I packed up my suitcase I pulled out my old bedroll And I started to wander On back to my home And the time it passed slowly And the days seemed to be years Far from your city And Yarrington Town I'm going home to your city And Yarrington Town
