“HOME IS WHERE YOU SHOULD BE ”
Words and Music by Keith McGavern


As I wander through this world
Looking for things to do and see
I never seem to be quite at rest
Something keeps driving me to my nest.
Turn out the light

Home is where you should be
That’s what the voice keeps saying to me
In the morning, noon, and night
To wake with the sun and turn out the light,
Turn out the light

Though I hear the voice now and then
I don’t seem to heed the call
Though in my mind I do respond
My body doesn’t seem to want to move along

Home is where you should be
That’s what the voice keeps saying to me
In the morning, noon, and night
To wake with the sun and turn out the light,
Turn out the light

To serve mankind for the sake of humanity
Or to be my best friend and leave it be
Was I born to live and just have fun
Or was I born to die and serve someone.

Home is where you should be
That’s what the voice keeps saying to me
In the morning, noon, and night
To wake with the sun and turn out the light,
Turn out the light
