Going Back To Indiana    (1970)

I'm going back to Indiana
Back to where I started from
Going back to Indiana
Indiana here I come

I spread my wings for greener pastures
I still ain't found what I was after
I got the blues and that is why I sing
I just wanna do my thing

I'm going back to Indiana
Indiana here I come
I'm going back to Indiana
'Cause that is where my baby's from

I'm going back to Indiana
Indiana here I come
Going back to Indiana
'Cause that is where my baby's from

Hollywood you got a lot of pretty things
I saw a lot of movie stars with diamond rings
But I ain't got my baby and I'm feeling wrong
That's why I gotta sing my song

I'm going back to Indiana
Indiana here I come
I'm going back to Indiana
'Cause that's where my baby's from

(I'm coming, I'm coming, I'm coming, I'm coming, I'm home...yeah!)

Ha, ha, sis boom bah
One more time for Roosevelt High
Johnny, Ray, Tex, Scooter and Lorenzo, too
Watch T.W. Brown do the boogaloo
Every soul that passes by
This song's to you from the Jackson 5
I'm coming home, it's plain to see
I still got Indiana soul in me
Come on, yeah!

I'm going back to Indiana
Indiana here I come
I'm going back to Indiana
Cause that's where my baby's from

That's where she is, yeah!

Lyrics by Frederick Perren, Berry Gordy Jr, Deke Richard and Alphonso Mizell.
Recorded by Jackson 5; Sawyer Brown; others.
