Don't Want To Go Home

Written by John Teague

There’s a bluebird singing me a lullaby 

There’s a feather on the table ‘cause I wanna fly 

Through the air as free as a hummingbird 

But, Lord, I don’t want to go home  

Two beautiful daughters and a loving wife 

They’re the air I breathe, the tears I cry 

If I gotta go, well, let it be known That, Lord, I don’t want to go home 


Oh no, I don’t want to go home 

The years have gone by, the chores are all done 

So don’t let the sun go down on the farm 

When, Lord, I don’t want to go home  

It’s about time I saved up enough money 

Take a trip to Europe or hike the Rockies 

We can dance all night, stay a little longer 

When the Lord be calling, I’m gone  


Oh no, I don’t want to go home 

The years have gone by, the chores are all done 

So don’t let the sun go down on the farm 

When, Lord, I don’t want to go home  


These days I’m as thankful as I ever been 

There’s some things I wish I never did 

Got a few books left I need to read 

And you know my baby’s gonna miss me  

So no, I don’t want to go home 

The years have gone by, the chores are all done 

Don’t let the sun go down on the farm 

When, Lord, I don’t want to go home  

Oh no, I don’t want to go home 

The cows are all fed,

 the kids are all grown 

Give me five, give me ten, give me twenty-one  

But, Lord, I don’t want to go home 

Give me five, give me ten, give me twenty-one  

But, Lord, I don’t want to go home
