lyrics

HOME ON THE RANGE
(Traditional with London Lyrics)

O’, give me a home where the buffalo roam,
Where the deer an’ the antelope play;
Where seldom is heard a discouraging word,
An’ the skies are not cloudy all day.

Home, home on the range,
Where the deer an’ the antelope play,
Where seldom is heard a discouraging word,
An’ the skies are not cloudy all day.

Though I turned out my lite, I’ll be missing you tonite,
Yer my lover, that is assured,
But in the cold grey of dawn, I’ll pull my cowboy boots on,
Think of you an’ mutter a curse word.

Lover, lover, estranged,
We did that thing an’ took too much cocaine,
An’ we yabbered all nite long, you through yer sexy things on,
An’ we fucked away a rare sunny day.

We did it again baby, the only time it’s nice out anymore,
We’re hiding away, in your old loft bed,
Hiding away from the Sun, in London.

So just give me a home, where the buffalo roam,
Where the deer an’ the antelope play;
Where seldom is heard a discouraging word,
An’ the skies are not cloudy all day.
