I'm a track star, I gotta run far,
and I'm ready to go.
It's a long, long road and I gotta make it on my own.
Everybody's gainin' on me,
tryin' to slow me down.
But if I'm gonna make it,
gotta fight, fight, fight all day,
and night, and day alright!

Goin' home, goin' home, goin' home
I gotta make it, gonna make it alright.
Goin' home, goin' home, goin' home
If it takes me the rest of my life.

I'm a space man,
from a different land,
I gotta get back home.
I've been gone so long
that I'm feelin' like a useless man.
Everybody's lookin' at me
tryin' to help me down.
I gotta fight, fight, fight
even though it takes another day
and night and day alright!

Oh my, why, why
is it either win or lose?
Some how, some day
I'll never ever have to go away.

Goin' home, goin' home, goin' home
I gotta make it, gonna make it alright.
Goin' home, goin' home, goin' home
if it takes me the rest of my life.
