I've been travelin' down 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 singin' 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 you morning cup of coffee in the country air oh listen It's a hundred million miles away from harm I go home Where nothing short of heaven's waiting there for me
