Warm up the sky, warm up the sky
light a welcoming fire for him
he's been gone for so long
got a blue shadow on his chin


Where's he gone, the prodigal son?
we won't be happy 'til he comes home
has anyone seen the prodigal son?


Warm up the sea, warm up the sea
for my son, he is under sail
help him to find warm, dry land
bring him in on an ocean swell


Where's he gone, the prodigal son?
we won't be happy 'til he comes home
has anyone seen the prodigal son?


Wake up the town, wake up the town
drag the barber from his chair
warm up the house, warm up the house
tell his brothers that he draws near


Where's he gone, the prodigal son?
we won't be happy 'til he comes home
has anyone seen the prodigal son?
