Rogers Sally – The Magpie lyrics

TAKE ME HOME
Sue Hammond, c. 1982
1. I've traveled these miles through dozens of smiles'
Never wanting a man or a home.
Then you came along, and in less than a song
The seeds of love you had sown.
Chorus:
Take me home, where the black bird sings by your door
I won't ask any more
And I'm so tired of living alone.
Take me home, where the black bird sings by your door
I won't ask any more
And I'm so tired of living alone.
2. I knew from the start you'd be breaking my heart,
It's a traveling life that we lead.
Now are games at a draw, 'cause you know that I saw
In you, a reflection of me.
3. I won't ask you to stay as you go on your way,
But there's one thing I want you to know,
When you are weary, and your days are too dreary,
You can come back to me and I'll say:
Sue Hammond is a former member of the all-women Bosom Buddies
Stringband, taught this to Sally Rogers while living in a teepee
of her own construction in Bath, MI. Shortly thereafter, she was
found riding a motorcycle built for two across the Sahara Desert.
She now makes her home in Galway in Ireland. (1984)
