Home Sweet Home to Me by Erin Enderlin Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I've been to New York City
Times Square'll keep you busy
Those Broadway shows are the best I've ever seen
I've watched the snow fall in Chicago
If you ain't been, then you gotta go
Catch a game at Wrigley even if you're not a fan
[Chorus 1]
But I wouldn't live there
Wouldn't wanna raise my kids there
I'm a southern girl, that's what I'll always be
Some fiddle and a pedal steel
Fireflies in a cotton field
That's home sweet home to me
[Verse 2]
Vegas stays up all night
It's a like a sea of neon lights
You could win a fortune in those poker games
Down on Hollywood Boulevard
You can eat ice cream served by a future star
Match your handprint to Jimmy Stewart on the Walk of Fame
[Chorus 2]
But I wouldn't live there
Wouldn't wanna raise my kids there
I'm a southern girl, that's what I'll always be
A country church off a gravel road
Friday nights at the rodeo
That's home sweet home to me
[Bridge]
Sweet tea and a southern drawl
Little kids wearing overalls
Where my granddaddy's daddy watched his children grow
[Chorus 3]
That's why I wanna live there
Why I wanna raise my kids there
I'm a southern girl, that's what I'll always be
The sweet smell of summer day
And every verse of Amazing Grace
That's home sweet home to me
[Outro]
Some fiddle and a pedal steel
Fireflies in a cotton field
That's home sweet home to me
I've been to New York City
Times Square'll keep you busy
Those Broadway shows are the best I've ever seen
I've watched the snow fall in Chicago
If you ain't been, then you gotta go
Catch a game at Wrigley even if you're not a fan
[Chorus 1]
But I wouldn't live there
Wouldn't wanna raise my kids there
I'm a southern girl, that's what I'll always be
Some fiddle and a pedal steel
Fireflies in a cotton field
That's home sweet home to me
[Verse 2]
Vegas stays up all night
It's a like a sea of neon lights
You could win a fortune in those poker games
Down on Hollywood Boulevard
You can eat ice cream served by a future star
Match your handprint to Jimmy Stewart on the Walk of Fame
[Chorus 2]
But I wouldn't live there
Wouldn't wanna raise my kids there
I'm a southern girl, that's what I'll always be
A country church off a gravel road
Friday nights at the rodeo
That's home sweet home to me
[Bridge]
Sweet tea and a southern drawl
Little kids wearing overalls
Where my granddaddy's daddy watched his children grow
[Chorus 3]
That's why I wanna live there
Why I wanna raise my kids there
I'm a southern girl, that's what I'll always be
The sweet smell of summer day
And every verse of Amazing Grace
That's home sweet home to me
[Outro]
Some fiddle and a pedal steel
Fireflies in a cotton field
That's home sweet home to me
