Home Cooking - Bob Hope/Margaret Whiting

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
