( There's
No Place Like ) Home for the Holidays ~ 1959 VERSION |
Oh! There’s no place like home for the
holidays,
‘Cause no matter how far away you roam,
When you pine for the sunshine of a friendly
gaze,
For the holidays you can’t beat home sweet
home!
I met a man who lives in Tennessee, he was
heading for,
Pennsylvania and some homemade pumpkin pie!
From Pennsylvania folks are travellin’
Down the Dixie sunny shore,
From Atlantic to Pacific,
Gee the traffic is terrific!
Oh! There’s no place like home for the
holidays,
‘Cause no matter how far away you roam,
If you wanna be happy in a million ways,
For the holidays you can’t beat home sweet
home!
Take a bus, take a
train, go and hop an aeroplane,
Put the wife an’
kiddies in the family car!
For the pleasure that
you bring when you make that doorbell ring,
No trip could be too
far!
I met a man who lives in Tennessee, he was
headin’ for,
Pennsylvania and some homemade pumpkin pie!
( Some homemade
pumpkin pie! )
From Pennsylvania folks are travellin’
Down the Dixie sunny shore,
From Atlantic to Pacific,
Gee the traffic is terrific!
Oh! There’s no place like home for the
holidays,
‘Cause no matter how far away you roam,
If you wanna be happy in a million ways,
For the holidays you can’t beat home sweet
home!
For the holidays you can’t beat home sweet
home!
