CHORUS:
Hey, little brother, welcome back home
It's good to see you again
Hey, little brother, welcome back home
To your family and your friends

CHORUS

Now you do not know
What your Father's been through
At night He would call out your name
Then for hours untold
He would stare down the road
Praying you'd come home again

CHORUS

I must confess I was quite envious
When I heard what Father planned to do
But after I talked to Him
I realized I had been
Almost as far from home as you
I was almost as far from home as you, so

CHORUS

Oh, dear brother run into my arms
And tell me you are home to stay
For there is no other Father like ours
And we're so glad you're here today
Yes, we're so glad you're here today

CHORUS (repeat)
