Like a homing pigeon that's a-hankerin' after its [A] nest.
Twenty three [A7] miles we've [D] covered today.
So, [A] whip crack away, [A] whip crack away, [A] whip crack a[D]way!
The wheels go [G] turnin' round, [D] homeward bound,
[A] Can't you hear 'em [D] humming,
[A] Happy times are [G] coming for to [A] stay [A7] hey!
We'll be [D] home tonight by the light of the silvery moon,
And our hearts are thumpin' like a mandolin plunking a [A] tune.
