~Favorite "Home" Songs~




*Metallica- Welcome Home (Sanitarium)*



Welcome to where time stands still
No one leaves and no one will
Moon is full, never seems to change
Just labeled mentally deranged
Dream the same thing every night
I see our freedom in my sight
No locked doors, no windows barred
No things to make my brain seem scarred

Sleep my friend and you will see
That dream is my reality
They keep me locked up in this cage
Can’t they see it’s why my brain says rage

Sanitarium, leave me be
Sanitarium, just leave me alone

Build my fear of what’s out there
And cannot breath the open air
Whisper things into my brain
Assuring me that I’m insane

They think our heads are in their hands
But violence use brings violent plans
Keep him tied, it makes him well
He’s getting better, can’t you tell ?

No more can they keep us in
Listen, damn it, we will win
They see it right, they see it well
But they think this saves us from our hell

Sanitarium, leave me be
Sanitarium, just leave me alone
Sanitarium, just leave me alone

Fear of living on
Natives getting restless now
Mutiny in the air
Got some death to do
Mirror stares back hard
Kill, it’s such a friendly word
Seems the only way
For reaching out again



*Marc Broussard - Home*



Rolling down the road
Going no where, guitar packed in the trunk
Somewhere around mile marker 112
Papa started humming the funk
I gotta Jones in my bones
Before I know, we be singing this melody
Stop the car, pull out the guitar
Halfway to New Orleans

Said take me home, home, home, home
Take me home, home, home, home

Could feel sun about to rise
When I realized we had nothing to fear
Just me and my daddy and a kid named Cole
Playing music that nobody could hear
And then the sun let up and it split the night
Spilling over our jubilee
10,000 cars by the side of the road
Grooving far as the eye can see

Said take me home, home, home, home
Take me home, home, home, home
Said take me home, home, home, home
Said take me home, home, home, home

This greyhound is delta bound mama
Baby boy done finally found
Said this greyhound is delta bound mama
Baby boy done finally found his way home, home, home, home
Said take me home, home, home, home

Here we go

Hot damn you should've felt the groove
Like I was swimming in a sea of soul
The sun was rising and the day was hot
And we was all about to loose control
My daddy turned his face up towards the sky
And I knew that there was nothing to loose
I felt the crowd breathe in and I closed my eyes
And we disappeared into the groove

Said take me home, home, home, home
Said take me home, home, home, home
Take me home, home, home, home
Said take me home, home, home, home

Straight from the water
Straight from the water children
Straight from the water
Straight from the water children
Straight from the water
Straight from the water children
Straight from the water
You don't know nothing about this

Take me home, home, home, home
Said take me home, home, home, home
Said take me home, home, home, home
Said take me home, home, home, home


Said take me home, home, home, home
Said take me home
Said take me home
Take me home
Said take me home
Said take me home



*Kansas - Nobody's Home*

It's empty now, no friendly face
And nothing lives within
I look around and I find no trace
To tell me what has been

So far I've come to find
There's no one here, no life I fear
I came for nothing, they have gone
And nobody's home, no one's home

I came to learn, perhaps to teach
But I can tell somehow
The world that I was sent to reach
Has got no future now

Across the galaxy to spread the word
And no one heard
I came for nothing, I'm alone
And nobody's home, no one's home

A requiem was never sung
No elegy was read
No monument was carved in stone
In memory of the dead

For those who made this place
Do not remain, they feel no pain
A stranger fate was never known

Going Home - Leonard Cohen

[Chorus sings:]
I’m going home
Without my sorrow
Going home
Sometime tomorrow
Going home
To where it’s better
Than before

Going home
Without my burden
Going home
Behind the curtain
Going home
Without this costume
That I wore...

Hey thanks, authentic darkies too!

(Yeah, I know what they meant when Kentucky officially put “people” in the song. That they are now blind to race. But this was about a time when, for worse or better, society knew of a white and a black community each with their own interests. And Stephen Foster purposely used “darkies” to humanize the Negro slaves (or recent freedmen, who often soldiered on as paid servants) of his songs. It means something special in its context.)

Our senior class trip in 1965 was to Washington D.C. and the New York Worlds Fair.

After maybe 6 or 7 days we were all waiting at Grand Central Station to board our train for home. Two of the girls began singing “500 miles” if that is the title. You know “Lord I’m one, Lord I’m Two, Lord I’m three, Lord I’m 500 miles away from home.

Soon all 60 of us began singing it. We really were ready to go home.

I hope all is well with you both. Things are okay here - I think the antibiotics are working!

The song is from “You’re a Big Boy Now”, the first movie directed by Francis Ford Coppola.
