Goin' home, my baby

Goin' home, to see my baby

Our baby, how good

Home to see my girl

Oh baby, baby, I'm coming home
Baby, baby I'm coming home
Tell me mama, baby, I'm coming home

Gonna see my baby, see my baby fine
Gonna take my baby, want to take my baby mine
Hoping my woman treats me real kind

I'm goin' home, my baby
I'm goin' home, to see my baby
Goin' home, my baby

Gonna see my baby, see my baby fine
Take my baby, take my baby mine
Gonna tell your mama how good that love of ours

I'm goin' home, to see my baby
I'm goin' home, to see my baby
Oh, baby ooh

Gonna take you back, take where love belong
Treat me baby, treat, don't treat me wrong

Oh, baby, I'm rollin'
Baby, baby, I'm rollin'
Baby, baby, I'm rollin'

Won't you shake me, baby, well get you rollin' down
Won't you shake me, baby, well get you rollin' down
Oh, baby, we're gonna have some fun

Baby, please don't go, baby, please don't go
Baby, please don't go, baby, please don't go
Please don't go, she's cold, I need you

Comin' home, ooh, hey
Come on over baby, whole lotta shakin' goin' on
I'm goin' home, to see my baby
Home, to see my girl, ooh

Gonna take me back, I'll take her where I belong

I'm goin' home, to see my baby
I'm goin' home, to see my baby
Come on, take me, yeah

I'm goin' home, hey, hoo
Gonna take me back back back where I belong

I'm goin' home, I'm goin' home
I'm goin' home, I'm goin' home
Hoo, hoo, right where I belong

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday". I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

Dreamwalker
Silent Planet
I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
