She had her heart set on Mexico   One day she packed her bags and said she'd go   Before she left she said all her goodbyes   Her father wasn’t there, her mother cried      She wrote a letter home   Mother, how are you?   Forward speaking, in tongues   She had places she should go   Maybe somewhere, Mexico      One day she got a letter in the mail   It was her mother saying all is well   She said her father needed her to pray   She said momma I’ll be home someday      And she’s callin’ home   And her father spoke   It’s been such a long time   He didn’t realize    she was ever alone      And she’s callin’ home   And her mother spoke   It’s been such a long time   Together they cried   She’s on her way home   And now she’s home
