[Verse 1]
Redcar Lane was the backdrop of my early days
Two dog of cider, Borough Park
Took me a while to find my place in Rye Hills School
Until I sang and played guitar
I love the people there, they always back the underdogs
And that was us down to a tee
The people ask me what it’s like to see Los Angeles
I say, “It ain’t no Redcar Beach”
[Chorus]
Take me home, I just wanna feel ya
Take me home, give me all your light
Take me home, I belong in Teesside
It‘s a long way back
Take mе home
Take me homе
[Verse 2]
Too many miles and too many streets away
Too long chasin’ the gold
Since I was a child, I left my trail of enemies
All in the name of hope
I honed my craft in a lion’s den by the riverside
I stuck a target on my back
Growin’ up ’round here, I learned no one will pity me
And I’m so thankful for that
