[Verse 1]
I bought an old home in Del Rio
Status-quo stucco looked like the Alamo
Neighbor Jethro brought by his fresco
Lo and behold he showed where good neighbors abode
He offered tobacco to which I vetoed
I said I only smoke alone separate and solo
He wanted to know how I liked Del Rio
And if the lack of snow had made it all perfecto
And I replied
[Chorus]
Oh, why here it's so-so
But it is no, no Colorado
I miss my home and the cocoa
I wanna go home
[Verse 2]
He helped me unload my piano
And then I played him oh a favorite concerto
He yelled profundo while I played allegro
And then he tip-tap-toed through my accelerandos
Gave him a banjo and said "strum what you know"
Then I pretended I was Dinos my old maestro
He kept in tempo and I said bravo
He picked the dearest notes that gave me thoughts of sweet hope
[Chorus]
[Verse 3]
After the song show I offered jam and toast
He said he'd forego and he left to tend his young goats
So I unpacked soap, found my bathrobe
And decided it'd be nice to sit and soak
On the backbone of the commode
I placed a family photo then let out a sad moan
Then a new groan of hunger followed
And I bought two tacos and an H20 to go
Yeah there is no place no, no place quite like your home
[Chorus]
