Lyrics
GREAT TO BE HOME
(MCCORMICK/ALLEN/FLOWERREE)
WHEN I LEFT HERE, MY SISTER'S BABY
WAS CRAWLIN' ROUND THE FLOOR
NOW HE RUNS FROM ROOM TO ROOM
AND HE'S TALKIN' UP A STORM
MY LITTLE BROTHER GOT TALLER THAN ME
GETTING' CAUGHT UP'S GONNA TAKE A WEEK
SURROUNDED BY FAMILY
WHERE I'M LOVED FOR BEING ME
IT'S GREAT TO BE HOME
BEEN AWAY WAY TOO LONG
FEELS GOOD BACK WHERE I BELONG
IT'S GREAT TO BE HOME
GREAT TO BE HOME
I PACKED MY BAGS IN SUCH A HURRY
SWORE I'D NEVER BE BACK
THE WORLD SPUN SO FAST IT MADE ME DIZZY
AND LEFT ME LONELY AND SAD
I'VE BEEN LONGING FOR THIS DAY
EVER SINCE I WENT AWAY
CHORUS
SLEEPIN' IN MY OLD BED
SMELL OF MAMA BAKIN' BREAD
KIDS PLAYIN' BALL OUT BACK
DOG ASLEEP IN MY LAP
FEELS LIKE I WAS LOST AND NOW I'M FOUND
SURROUNDED BY FAMILY
WHERE I'M LOVED FOR BEING ME
IT'S GREAT TO BE HOME
BEEN AWAY WAY TOO LONG
FEELS GOOD BACK WHERE I BELONG
IT'S GREAT TO BE HOME
GREAT TO BE HOME
