Rascal Flatts - A Little Home


Fifth floor
 She’s up in her dorm
 Studyin’ for her midterms

 She’s had one of those weeks
 Where the world it seems is against her

 Right on cue a picture pops up on her laptop
 She can’t pick her cell phone up fast enough

Sometimes you just need a little home
 Some "hey mom and dad, what’s goin’ on?
 I’m just checkin’ in
 No, there ain’t nothing wrong"
 Sometimes you just need a little home

Well, he’s tired
 Sits down in the sand
 Shoe box in his hand
 Half a world away

 And he smiles
 When he sees who it’s from
 He lays down his gun
 No, he can’t wait

Cards and letters and something sweet
 He takes a bite and reads
 How everybody sends their love and he tears up

Sometimes you just need a little home
 A little "let you know you’re not alone"
 To carry in your heart
 And keep your spirit strong
 Sometimes you just need a little home

Sometimes
 I’d like to drive back through that little town
 Sometimes
 And get my feet back on
 Get my feet back on the ground

Sometimes you just need a little home
 A little "hey, you’ve been gone way too long"
 Yeah, way too long
 No matter how grown up you get
 Oh, no matter how far you roam
 Sometimes you just need a little home
 Home sweet home
 Sometimes you just need a little home

"Hey, mom and dad, what’s goin’ on?"
