The Home Fire — текст песни (Louis Armstrong)

The home fire

(george weiss / bob thiele)



Pardon the smile on my face my friend

Dreamin of reachin my journeys end

Im headin straight for my hearts desire

Gee, its good to know Im near the home fire



All of the folks that I love are there

I got a date with my favourite chair

With every step every hope grows higher

Didnt know how much I missed the home fire



The noises, the tv, the rusty old pipes

The cat always teasin my dog

The neighbours, the quarrels, the screaming of kids

For the first time in years Ill sleep like a log



Heaven is waiting for me, my friend

Seven or eight dreams around the bend

And if youre ever in town inquire

Well be glad to have you share the home fire



Yes, the noises, the tv, the rusty old pipes

The cat always teasin my dog

The neighbours, the quarrels, the scream of the kids

For the first time in years Ill sleep like a log



Heaven is waiting for me, my friend

Seven or eight dreams around the bend

And if youre ever in town inquire

Well be glad to have you share the home fire



Well be glad to have you share the home fire
