It seems to me that I've heard the song "Sentimental Journey" ("Gonna
take a sentimental journey, gonna set my heart at ease....") with an
introductory verse. Does anyone recall the lyrics to that verse?

Thanks much.

I think this is the full version

Sentimental Journey


Ev'ry roll-ing stone gets to feel a-lone
When home, sweet home is far a-way.___
I'm a roll-ing stone who's been so a-lone Un-til to-day.

Gon-na take a Sen-ti-ment-al Jour-ney,
Gon-na set my heart at ease,___
Gon-na make a Sen-ti-mental Jour-ney
To re-new old mem - o - ries.__

Got my bag, I got my res - er - va - tion,
Spent each dime I could af-ford.__
Like a child in wild an-ti-ci-pa-tion,
Long to hear that "All a - board."___

Sev-en,___ that's the time we leave, at sev-en____
I'll be wait-in' up for Heav-en,__
Count-in' ev-'ry mile of rail-road track__that takes me back.__

Nev-er thought my heart could be so "yean-y".
Why did I de - cide to roam?__
Got-ta take this Sen - ti - ment-al Jour-ney,
Sen - ti - ment-al Jour-ney home.
