lyrics

O MY COUNTRY BOY
YOU WITH THE ROVIN' EYE
DON'T YOU RUN AROUND
YOU KNOW I'D RATHER DIE

YOU ARE MY HOME
BABY, DON'T GO
I'M COMIN' HOME

O MY COUNTRY GIRL
THEY'RE SENDIN' ME OVERSEAS
WITH A GUN IN MY HAND
AND WILL YOU REMEMBER ME?

YOU ARE MY HOME
BABY, DON'T GO
I'M COMIN' HOME

O MY COUNTRY BOY
THEY SENT ME A WIDOW'S VEIL
AND A SINGLE LINE:
YOUR LOVER IS DEATHLY PALE

YOU ARE MY HOME
BABY, DON'T GO
I'M COMIN' HOME

O MY COUNTRY GIRL
YOU WITH THE ROVIN' EYE
GONE OUT WITH ANOTHER MAN
AND NOW HE'S GONNA DIE

YOU ARE MY HOME
BABY, DON'T GO
I'M COMIN' HOME

O MY ONLY LOVE
YOUR FINGERS ARE PAINTED RED
BUT AS LONG AS YOU LIVE
I WON'T GRIEVE THAT MY WOOER'S DEAD

YOU ARE MY HOME
BABY, DON'T GO

YOU ARE MY HOME
BABY, DON'T GO

YOU ARE MY HOME
BABY, DON'T GO
I'M COMIN' HOME

YOU ARE MY HOME
BABY, DON'T GO
I'M COMIN' HOME
