Home Sweet Home [Peter Gabriel 2: Scratch , 1978]

Met this girl called Josephine and took her up on my machine

We had a little fun and now we got a little one

Had to get married, being chased out of town

Found ourselves a place to live, we put all our money down

Home Sweet Home, home sweet home

Eleven floors up in a tower block

Happy just to have a home

I've gone and changed the lock on our home

Nothing really worked out right

Things got broke, they stayed that way

None of our friends came around at night

And little Sam got no place to play

"We've got to get out of here, Bill" she said

"I've been telling you all the while"

When I came home from work that night

She'd jumped out the window with our child

From our Home Sweet Home, home sweet home

Just a place to take a rest

Just a place to make our nest

We call it our home

When the insurance money came through

Seemed dirty didn't know what to do

Took the cash went down the casino

Down on the wheel on the double

And I won, oh yes I won, like I never won before

Bought myself a country house

With an antique carved oak door

It was Home Sweet Home, home sweet home

Just a place to lay our head think of all those things we said

About in our Home Sweet Home
