Back Home - Yusef Lateef

Took a plane to Cairo

Then a Cessna to Rome

I got hijacked to Tel Aviv

And it’s the first time that I’ve flown

But I’ve found my Shangri-la

In a place that’s not too far, back home

Took a train to Jordan

And to Texas and back

I met Lyndon B. Johnson and I felt his hand on my back

But I found my Shangri-la

In a place that’s not too far, back home

Back home, back home

Back home, back home

Back home, back home
