HOME
(words and music by David E Johnston)

So there’s a cabin in the deepest wood
Under leaves, it’s got some squeaky floorboards
Here’s a coat hook, and an iron bed
A rocking chair, and the smell of moonshine
They say that home is where the heart is
But this house was never made of heart
They forgot that part
There’s flesh and blood in the wallpaper
The sound of fear in the quiet of the night
Where the dark is, so are legends told
It’s such a fertile ground for the mind to grow
They say that home is where the heart is
But this house just is no home
There’s flesh and blood in the wallpaper
The sound of fear in the quiet of the night
Over the river and through the wood
to grandmothers house we go
My grandmother, what big teeth you have
