When I get home, I'm gonna clean up my house   When I get home, I'm gonna kick out that mouse   When I get home, I'm gonna put things in order   But right now, right right now, right now I'm a-roaming      When I get home, I'm gonna make that call   When I get home, I'm gonna talk it through   When I get home, I'm gonna straighten it out   But right now, right now, right now I'm a-roaming      When I get home, I'm gonna give up the booze   When I get home, I'm gonna get me some food   When I get home, I'm gonna quit them drugs   But right now, right now, right now I'm a-roaming      When I get home, I'm gonna call my mother   When I get home, I'm gonna cook her some dinner   When I get home, I'm gonna invite my brothers   But right now, right right now, right now I'm a-roaming      When I get home, I'm gonna see my little boy   When I get home, I'm buy him a little toy   When I get home, he's gonna jump for joy   But right now, right right now, right now I'm a-roaming      When I get home, I'm gonna unpack my bags   When I get home, I'm gonna wash these dirty rags   When I get home, I'm gonna pack 'em up again   But I'm gonna go, I'm gonna go, I'm gonna go right back roaming.
