I WISH THAT I WAS BACK IN INDIANA

Music by Hezzie-Ken-Frank-Gabe    Words by Orley S. Johnston   Copyright 1938 by Hoosier Hot Shots



VERSE
Indiana that's the place where I was born.
How I long to be there in the early morn
I have traveled all around
And no place did I see
That I'd care to settle down
There's just one place for me

CHORUS
I wish I was back in Indiana,
I long to hear an Indiana tune
I miss my ma and pa;
I wonder how they are
I even miss the Indiana moon
You can sing your songs about Virginia
Dixie land was never meant for me
For when they sing a song about the Wabash
It's like home sweet home to me.

VERSE
Indiana that's the place where I was born.
How I long to be there in the early morn
I have traveled all around
But my trip was in Vain
I will never settle down
'Til I get back again
