Emmylou Harris - Home Sweet Home lyrics

rate me

I live out here in the wind and the pouring rain

Somewhere between 14th Avenue and Main

In the summer heat, winter's freezing snow

You see I got nowhere else to go

Got no home sweet home

Into this world, somewhere by the road

And it's a long hard road we walk

On our way to home sweet home

People pass by, they don't see me here

And if they do they wish I would disappear

I guess they know way down deep in their bones

It could be them out there looking for a home

For a home sweet home

Into this world, somewhere by the road

And it's a long hard road we walk

On our way to home sweet home

Ought to have a place to lay my head

A crumb or two for my daily bread

Perhaps someday a kind soul will come upon

Help me find my way back where I belong

Back to a home sweet home

Into this world, somewhere by the road

And it's a long hard road we walk

On our way to home sweet home

Sweet home

Oh that street, I can call it home

And it's a long hard road we walk

All the way to home sweet home
