Welcome Back, We always could spot a friend 
Welcome Back, and I smile when I think of how it must have been
And I know what a scene you were learnin` in
Was there something that made you come back again
And what could ever lead ya (and what could ever lead ya)
Back here where we need ya (back here where we 
need ya)
Yeah we tease him a lot `cause we got him on the
spot Welcome Back Welcome Back Welcome Back
Welcome Back welcome Back Welcome Back
Play on a harmonica— watch which holes to blow & draw, with sound
