(THERE'S NO PLACE LIKE) HOME FOR THE HOLIDAYS
(Al Stillman / Robert Allen) 


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 face 
For the holidays, you can’t beat 
Home, sweet home

I met a man who lives in Tennessee 
And he was headin’ for Pennsylvania 
And some home made pumpkin pie 
From Pennsylvania folks a travelin’ down 
To Dixie’s 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 want 
To be happy in a million ways 
For the holidays, you can’t beat 
Home, sweet home 


*****


As recorded by Garth Brooks - 1999


Oh, there's no place like home for the holidays
'Cause no matter how far away you roam
If you long for the sunshine and a friendly gaze
For the holidays you can't beat home sweet home

I met a man who lived in Tennessee and he was looking for
Pennsylvania and some homemade pumpkin pie
Now in Pennsylvania folks are traveling down to Dixie's sunny shore
The Atlantic to Pacific, oh, the season is terrific

No, there's no place like home for the holidays
For the holidays you can't beat home sweet home

(Instrumental Break)

(Oooh, oooh, ahhhh)
(Do do do do do do)
(Do do do do do do)

No, there's no place like home for the holidays
'Cause no matter how far away you roam
If you long for the sunshine and a friendly gaze
For the holidays you can't beat home sweet home

For the holidays you know
You can't beat home sweet home
