Looking At a Heart That Needs a Home

(Harlan Howard)



I'm just a stranger in this town

I'm just a drifter looking round

I might stay a lifetime or a week

It all depends if I'll find what I seek.



You're looking at a heart that needs a home

And a little girl to love me and me alone

One who wants a gentleman and accepts me like I am

You're looking at a heart that needs a home.

I thought I had found her many times

But love reserves the right to change it's mind

I guess perhaps my ways are strange

But without this cast I can't change.



You're looking at a heart that needs a home

And a little girl to love me and me alone

One who wants a gentleman and accepts me like I am

You're looking at a heart that needs a home.
