Homesick Lyrics by Jacob Oman

OMAN

2021

(Verse 1)
Let me tell you about where I’m from
Where I grew up as a child
Let me tell about where I used to be
Where I lived my life for a while
I grew up in a town by the tidewater
Right near the Chesapeake bay
But when I go back it’s not my life
It’s different and everything’s changed
(Chorus)
I’m homesick for Virginia
I’m homesick for the old James River
I’m homesick for the life I had
Even though my life has gotten bigger
I miss the friends I used to see
When I went walking down old D.O.G. street
I’m homesick
But is my home sick for me?
(Verse 2)
Let me tell you about Greensprings road
And all those midnight drives
Take the parkway down to a colonial town
Where they live their old fashioned lives
When I left there was no celebration
I snuck right out of town
Did nobody notice?
Did nobody care?
Is it better now that I’m not there?
(Chorus)
I’m homesick for Virginia
I’m homesick for the old James River
I’m homesick for the life I had
Even though my life has gotten bigger
I miss the friends I used to see
When I went walking down old D.O.G. street
I’m homesick
But is my home sick for me?
(Bridge)
Is it stupid to be so cliche?
Will my hometown love me anyway?
Even though I left it in the past
You don’t have to answer but I have to ask
I’m homesick
But will my home ever want me back?
(Chorus)
I’m homesick for Virginia
I’m homesick for the old James River
I’m homesick for the life I had
Even though my life has gotten bigger
I miss the friends I used to see
When I went walking down old D.O.G. street
I’m homesick
But is my home sick for me?
(Outro)
I’m homesick but is my home sick for me?
