Lyrics Sentimental Journey - Ruth Brown

Gonna take a sentimental journey
(Journey)
Gonna set my heart at ease
(On my way)
Gonna make a sentimental journey
(Hey, hey)
To renew old memories
(Memories)

Got my bag, I got my reservation
Spent each dime I could afford
Like a child in wild anticipation
(Long to hear that "all aboard!")

(Seven)
That's the time we leave at seven
I'll be waiting up for heaven
Counting every mile of railroad track
That takes me back
(Let's go)

Never though my heart could be so yearny
(Roam, roam)
Why did I decide to roam
(Going home)
Gotta take a sentimental journey
Sentimental journey home

(Gonna take a sentimental journey)
(Gonna set my heart at ease)
I gonna make a sentimental journey
To renew old memories

I got my bag
Got my bag
(Got the reservation)
Spent each dime I could afford
Just like a child in wild anticipation
Long to hear that "all aboard!"

Seven
Seven
(That's the time we leave at seven)
Oh, I'll be waiting up for heaven
Counting every mile of railroad track
That takes me back

Never though my heart could be so yearny
(Oh, why)
Why did I decide to roam
(From home)
Gotta take a sentimental journey
Sentimental journey home
Sentimental
(Sentimental journey home) Journey home
