Reunion of Love: Homecoming with My Country Girl
Lyrics
My little girl is a country girl
Expressing that his beloved is from the countryside
My little girl is a country girl
Reiteration of the fact that his girl is a country girl
Means more to me than anything in the world
Emphasizing the significance of his country girl in his life
She fixes my breakfast, lunch an' dinner
Describing how she prepares his meals diligently
Fix 'em right on time
Highlighting the punctuality in her meal preparation
She fix my breakfast, lunch an' dinner
Repetition of the theme of the girl fixing his meals
Fix 'em right on time
Reiterating the timely preparation of meals by his girl
Glad to be back-a home
Expressing joy at being back home with his girl
With that little girl of mine
Highlighting the happiness of being with his girl at home
That's why I'm glad, glad
Expressing joy and satisfaction
Glad to be back home at last
Reiteration of happiness at being back home
Ooh-ooh, I'm glad, glad, glad
Repeating the sentiment of being glad
To be back home at last
Affirming the joy of finally being back home
Well, since I saw my baby
Reflecting on the time since he last saw his baby
Yeah, many a day have past
Emphasizing the passage of many days
Well, I roll in the station
Describing his arrival at the station
Around 6:45
Specifying the time of his arrival at the station
Yes, I roll in the station
Reiteration of the time of arrival
Around 6:45
Repeating the specific time of 6:45
Should of seen my baby's face
Describing the joy on his baby's face upon his arrival
To see my train arrive
Highlighting the excitement of seeing his train arrive
It made me feel so good
Reflecting on the positive feelings upon entering his home
To walk in the door
Reiteration of the positive emotions upon entering
Yes, it made me feel so good
Repeating the positive feelings upon entering
To walk in the door
Expressing the sense of familiarity and comfort
Find everything the same
Noting the consistency and stability in his surroundings
Even my pallet on the floor
Observing familiar items, like his pallet, unchanged
I said 'A-hi-i-i-i, baby
Greeting his baby affectionately
I won't worry you no more'
Promising not to cause any more worries to his baby
Yes, I said, 'Hi-i-i-i, baby
Repeating the assurance of not causing worries
I won't worry you no more'
Continuing the promise of not causing concerns
Well, I'm right where I belong
Asserting his contentment and belonging at home
I ain't gon' run out that door.
Declaring his commitment to staying at home
