Just a blue-eyed Kentucky girl, I've already seen the world
And I'm grateful for the love I've been shown
There's a feeling down inside that keeps telling me that I
Shouldn't wait too late to spend some time at home

Oh I can go for the summer to London
Or go for the winter to Rome
But nothing will compare with what I long to share
With my darling and my babies at home

I don't know exactly when I'll be back this way again
'Cause the goin's gettin' rougher every day
No, and nothing takes the place of a mother's calling face
And every time they need me, I'm always away

Oh I can go for the summer to London
Or go for the winter to Rome
But nothing will compare with what I long to share
With my darling and my babies at home
