lyrics

It’s nice to be back home
I like eatin’ breakfast with my own spoon and my own cup
It’s nice to be back home
I like looking out the window in my room, at my own grass
It’s time to cut it down

You’re sleepin’ in the bed that I woke up in
Maybe I’ll lay back down
When you wake we can finally make love and
Laze around
Oh, it’s nice to be back home

It’s nice to be on the road
I like the feel of the wheels as they bump and roll, carry us on
It’s nice to be on the road
In every town we meet people who help us out
Say they like what we do

You’re always sleepin’ in the bed that I wake up in
We seldom lay back down
There’s hardly ever time to make love or
Laze around
Still it’s nice, out on the road

It’s nice to be in your arms
Hard to believe after all of my wrong turns, I got it right
It’s nice to be in your arms
Close my eyes and forget which flesh is mine
It’s all ours
You’re sleepin’ in the bed that I woke up in
Maybe I’ll stay right here
Kiss you out of your dreams, make love and,
Hold you near
Oh, it’s nice here in your arms
Oh, it’s nice to be back home

Struthers has built her career on these kinds of songs. ... more
