My world's a rollercoaster,
And my life's a traffic jam
All this messing even close to being who I am

I've been dreaming care for nana
Catching crawl dance by the creek
But I'm stuck here in this prison
Cellphones and city streets

I need a little time
I need a little space
I need a little gone
Little out of this place
A wanna get back
Where I can breathe, where I feel free, yeah

Take me back I've been away too long
Take me back to my home sweet home

I can smell my mama's cooking
And the sweet magnolia trees
Nothing like summer time on a summer night
I can hear those crickets calling me

I need a little time
I need a little space
I need a little gone
Little out of this place
A wanna get back
Where I can breathe, where I feel free, yeah

Take me back I've been away too long
Take me back to my home sweet home

I need a little time
I need a little space
I need a little gone
Little out of this place
A wanna get back
Where I can breathe, where I feel free, yeah

Take me back I've been away too long
Take me back I've been away too long
Take me back I've been away too long
Take me back to my home sweet home

Kissing … on the front porch swing,
Catching butterflies on the first day of spring
Swaying along while the church choir sing
Take me home, take me home
Sneaking around on a full moon night
Making out for the very first time
Those were the best days of my life.
