When I get home, I´m gunna clean up my house
When I get home, I´m gunna kick out that mouse
When I get home, I´m gunna put things in order
but right now, right right now, right now I´m a-roaming

When I get home, I´m gunna make that call
When I get home, I´m gunna talk it through
When I get home, I´m gunna straighten it out
but right now, right now, right now I´m a-roaming

When I get home, I´m gunna give up the booze
When I get home, I´m gunna get me some food
When I get home, I´m gunna quit them drugs
but right now, right now, right now I´m a-roaming

When I get home, I´m gunna call my mother
When I get home, I´m gunna cook her some dinner
When I get home, I´m gunna invite my brothers
but right now, right right now, right now I´m a-roaming

When I get home, I´m gunna see my little boy
When I get home, I´m buy him a little toy
When I get home, he´s gunna jump for joy
but right now, right right now, right now I´m a-roaming

When I get home, I´m gunna unpack my bags
When I get home, I´m gunna waash these dirty rags
When I get home, I´m gunna pack ´em up again
but I´m gunna go, I´m gunna go, I´m gunna go right back roaming.
