There's no place like home

lyrics

“The Old Screen Door”

I can hear it slam, and slam again,
And a hundred times more each day
That old screen door on our farmhouse
On a sultry warm summer’s day
I can hear my mother calling out
“Don’t slam that door so hard!”
As we raced into the barnyard.

Chorus:
But, oh the times that old door seen
Each slam-of-its-jamb, a new mystery
One way out, full of adventure
The other, to a family history

Half the paint had long disappeared
What was left, a faded green
Hinges were a wee bit worn
With a growing hole in the screen
Worn out latch, from front to back
The threshold had seen its day
T’was all but worn away

[Repeat Chorus]

Bridge:
And how I wish to be there now
Someday soon, we’ll all be together
Through that old screen door, somehow

[Repeat Chorus]

There’s no place like home
