I've been traveling 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 singing 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 singing 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
