Mom's Home Cookin' - by Jonas P. Littman

_______________________________________________
I feel something very special when coming through the door.
A certain something in the air says 'Welcome home once more'.
It doesn't matter if the room's been rearranged,
somethng says 'you're there.'
It's the smell of fond old memories. Mom's cookin' fills the air.

chorus:
Mom's Home Cookin', Mom's Home Cookin'.
You know it can't be beat.
Doesn't matter what's being made the aroma is so sweet.
Bread bakes in the oven. A pie cools on the shelf.
Soup is simmering on the stove. Can't be wanting nothin' else.

You can find a five star restaurant, eat the finest food,
Drink the choicest vintages, have a piano set the mood.
Ther service sure is wonderful and the truffles are the best.
The only thing that's better? Mom's cookin', how'd you guess?

I was away a while running down the road.
Trying out some different things, just having fun, you know.
It doesn't matter if you've been gone a year
near home you know you're able
to picture mom's home cookin' settin' on the table.
