God gave me travelling shoes,
God gave me the wanderer's eye,
God gave me a few gold coins to help me to the other side.
Looked around and said - be careful how the small things grow,
God gave me travelling shoes,
And I knew that it was time to go.

Sent in the ship at night,
To take me to the hidden port.
Found me the key at last,
To open up the prison door.
Brought down the blackbird's wings,
Gifted me with beggar's eyes.
Send it in the jackals,
To tell me I should say bye, bye, bye.

I'm hooome,hooome,home,home,home
And I'm hoohome,hoohome,home,home,home

But I'm miles and miles and miles and miles and miles waay

Or, where can I hihihide

God gave me one last chance
Gave me one last reprieve.
Jah gave me hunger,
Gave me the air to breath.
Gave me a one suitcase
Gave me one last goodbye.
Gave me travelling shoes,
And without them I would surely die,die,die

Hooome, hooome, home, home, home
Hooome, hooome, home, home, home

Miles and miles and miles and miles and miles waaay
Miles and miles and miles and miles and miles waaay

Where do I gooo
Or, where can I hihihihide, hihihihide

Hooome, hooome, home, home, home
And I'm hooome, hooome, home, home, home

Miiiiiiiiiles way
