"Goin' Home" is a song by rock band The Rolling Stones featured on their 1966 album ''Aftermath''. Written by Mick Jagger and Keith Richards, "Goin' Home" is a long blues-inspired track that is notable as one of the first songs by a rock and roll band to break the ten-minute mark. While many bands had experimented with length in live performances, and Bob Dylan had written many songs by this point which reached the five/six-minute mark, "Goin' Home" was the first "jam" recorded expressly for an album. In an interview with the magazine ''Rolling Stone'', guitarist Richards said, "It was the first long rock and roll cut. It broke that two-minute barrier. We tried to make singles as long as we could do then because we just liked to let things roll on. Dylan was used to building a song for 20 minutes because of the folk thing he came from. That was another thing. No one sat down to make an 11-minute track. I mean 'Goin' Home', the song was written just the first 2 and a half minutes. We just happened to keep the tape rolling, me on guitar, Brian () on harp, Bill () (on bass) and Charlie () (on drums) and Mick. If there's a piano, it's Stu (Ian Stewart)."〔Greenfield, Robert.

"Goin' Home" plays as a long jam, eventually deconstructing Richards' guitar piece, Jagger's lyrics, and the drum lines of Watts which build in power as the song progresses. Jagger's lyrics are called "a basic expression of () pining for his girl and determining to go home and get him some. It's the bumpety-bump, ascending chorus of announcing his intentions to go home that's the most 'pop' element of the song."〔Unterberger, Richie. (The Rolling Stones "Going Home" ).
