I just got home from work vs i just come home from work

The correct phrase is 'I just got home from work.' The use of 'got' in the past tense is appropriate to indicate that the action of arriving home has been completed. 'I just come home from work' is incorrect because 'come' is the present tense form of the verb. It therefore does not match the past tense context of the sentence.
