The roads are the dustiest, The winds are the gustiest
|
The gates are the rustiest, The pies are the crustiest
|
The songs the lustiest, The friends the trustiest
|
Way back home
|
(Back home)
|
|
The trees are the sappiest, The days are the nappiest
|
The dogs are the yappiest, The kids are the scrappiest
|
the jokes the snappiest, the folks the happiest
|
Way back home
|
|
DonĄ¯t know why I left the homestead
|
I really must confess
|
IĄ¯m a weary exile
|
Singing my song of lonliness
|
|
The grass is the springiest, The bees are the stingiest
|
The birds are the wingiest, The bells are the ringiest
|
(the hearts) the hearts the singiest
|
(the arms) the arms the clingiest
|
Way back home
|
|
(What about the sun) The sunĄ¯s the blaziest
|
(And the fields) The fieldĄ¯s the daziest
|
(And the cows) The cowĄ¯s the graziest
|
(And the help) The helpĄ¯s the laziest
|
The boys, Are the wittiest
|
The girls, Are the prettiest
|
Way back home
|
|
The pigs are the snootiest, The owls are the hootiest
|
The plantĄ¯s the fruitiest, The stars the shootiest
|
The grins the funniest, The smiles the sunniest
|
Way back home
|
|
DonĄ¯t know why I left the homestead
|
I really must confess
|
IĄ¯m a weary exile
|
Singing my song of lonliness
|
|
The food is the spreadiest, The wine is the headiest
|
The pals are the readiest, The gals are the steadiest
|
The love the livliest, The life the lovliest
|
Way back, way back, way back, home
|
(No place like home)
|
Home sweet home
|
