Emerald City

[Verse 1]

Momma, I'll be back by tomorrow

Not packing my bags 'cause I'll stay for the long haul

You don't gotta hold back tears 'cause my flight's here

And you ain't gotta cry no more 'cause I'm right here

[Pre-Chorus]

I've been away for too damn long

Don't wanna be missed every time I'm gone

My heart's close to home but it's still so far (Oh)

[Chorus]

I wanna get home to the Emerald City

I miss the rain and it sounds so pretty

But I don't care, I love my city

Emerald, emerald

I wanna be back where the riverside ends

I hate to admit it but I miss my friends

I don't care, I lovе my city

Emerald, emerald

[Verse 2]

So I go up and down and all around town, just driving

Evеrything's safe and sound, I'm in the background, deciding

If I can keep up with this lifestyle, I'm too deep in

And I can't turn back (Oh, oh-oh)

[Pre-Chorus]

I've been away for too damn long

Don't wanna be missed every time I'm gone

My heart's close to home but it's still so far (Oh)

[Chorus]

I wanna get home to the Emerald City

I miss the rain and it sounds so pretty

But I don't care, I love my city

Emerald, emerald

I wanna be back where the riverside ends

I hate to admit it but I miss my friends

I don't care, I love my city

Emerald, emerald

[Outro]

(Oh, ooh-ooh, oh-oh, ooh-ooh)

Emerald, emerald

(Oh, ooh-ooh, oh-oh, ooh-ooh)

Emerald, emerald

(Oh)
