Lyrics:

I left the only folks I had known

I was fifteen then , hardly grown

When they found me in the swamp face down in the mud

Couldn't get back and I couldn't go far

Said to myself stay right where you are

Done found yourself a Ma and Pa

Ev'rybody said the kid's no good



Come Home Johnny Bride come home

Johnny Bride come home

We're all wrong without you

How did we ever doubt you

He confessed to the killing

It's his role we had you filling

We didn't really mean to make you sad

But when you ran you made us think that you were twice as bad



(repeat last verse and fade out about line 6)
