Home Cookin'

(Home cookin', home cookin')



Oh woe is me, what goes with me

I hate this livin' I've chose for me



Tired of meetin' misery

Should've never roamed and left that



Home cookin', home cookin'

Life is cruel, I was a fool to roam



I climb this hill, I try this dale

And then I step on a rusty nail



Never even get no mail

She's so far from all that goes with



Home cookin', home cookin'

I'm afraid I shoulda stayed at home



(With a porch light, screen door

Banner from Niagara falls

Green grass, lawn mower

"Home, sweet home" upon the walls)



That home cookin', home cookin'

Quiet life is quite the life for me



I meet a guy, his name is Al

I wanna keep him in my corral

But he says he's just a pal

Never comes around to try my

Home cookin', home cookin'

Life is cruel, I was a fool to roam



When I go out, the sun goes in

The rain comes down and it soaks my skin

Jonah is my next o' kin

Darn the luck I shoulda stuck with

Home cookin', home cookin'

I'm afraid I shoulda stayed at home



(With a cricket chattin'

Summer nights you sit on the lawn

Dog wants pattin'

Nine o'clock you start to yawn



That's home cookin', home cookin'

Quiet life is quite the life for me



Rock of Ages on the organ

Thanksgivin' every day



Be it ever so humble

Give me that home cookin', home cookin'

And I'll never go away



My ticket calls for Jasper Falls

I'm headin' home and I'm gonna stay!
