Verses:

'Mid pleasures and palaces though we may roam,
Be it ever so humble, there's no place like home.
A charm from the sky seems to hallow us there,
Which, seek through the world, is ne'er met with else where.

 

Chorus:
Home! Home! Sweet Home. There's no place like home.
Home! Home! Sweet Home. There's no place like home.
