I've been travelin' round the country ever since I can remember
And the people that I meet just suit me fine
But anywhere you see me going, chances are that I've done been there
So when I need a little peace of mind

I go home, home
Where the mockingbirds are singin' a pretty melody
Home, home
Where nothing short of heaven's waiting there for me

Picture the morning sun, a white rail fence and watch the meadow glisten
There's a newborn baby calf down in the barn
Have your morning cup of coffee in the country air, oh listen
It's a hundred million miles away from harm

I go home, home
Where the mockingbirds are singin' a pretty melody
Home, home
Where nothing short of heaven's waiting there for me

Where nothing short of heaven's waiting there for me
