Merle Haggard — Home Is Where a Kid Grows Up

[Verse 1] It may be down south in Alabama Or may be just a little old one-horse town It could be on the back streets of Chicago But if it's home, it's still the greatest place around [Chorus] Home is where a kid grows up And spends his younger days Home is where I long to be No matter how far away [Verse 2] There may be an old sweetheart still there waiting Can't tell, I might even find a few old friends I know my mom and dad would like to see me And know I want so much to go back home again [Chorus] Home is where a kid grows up And spends his younger days Home is where I long to be No matter how far away [Outro] It may be down south in Alabama Or may be just a little one-horse town
