George McCorkle wrote this song as a tribute to Toy Caldwell.....I'm dedicating it to our brother Bobo.... The Journey Home (Scott Miller/George McCorkle) I didn’t want to believe it When I heard the news Another old friend was gone Those of us who loved him All gathered around And started singing those old sweet songs With our backs to a Carolina wind We watched a chapter come to an end Chorus There’s another free bird in the southern sky Can’t you see he’s searching for a rainbow The sky is crying can’t you hear them guitars moan Another midnight rider has made the journey home We were chased off that hillside by a driving rain We scattered like ashes across the sea But tears fall from heaven when the good die young Some things are just meant to be Like there was no tomorrow That’s how he chose to live He gave it all, there was nothing left to give Chorus There’s another free bird in the southern sky Can’t you see he’s looking for a rainbow The sky is crying can’t you hear them guitars moan Another midnight rider has made the journey home. Good bye, my friend. 😥
