Digital Download   He loved her back in 1961He held her through the nightTill the dark was doneBut he's been gone now for several yearsLeft her nothing but a letter to catch the tearsHe might not know it but she had his sonBack in 1961She raised the babyAnd off to school he wentShe had help from the neighborsAlong from the governmentShe tells herself that she did her bestThrough out all the trials, they had been blessedBut she still longs to have her funLike in 1961, ohHe wakes up on a lonely stretch of roadAnd driving rigs for a livingTruckin' a heavy loadHis thoughts drift back to another timeAnd a woman that he treated so unkindAnd wonders just what her life's becomeSince 1961He lays there now upon his dying bedMemories of lifetime's in his headThe nurse comes back, she says to him"You have a visitor, should I let him in?"And in walks a face that could only be his sonFrom 1961, oh, from 1961, yeah, 1961, oh yeahI'm comin' home, oh, 1961, ohYeah
