Come On In (And Make Yourself At Home) [Live "Country Hoedown" Radio Show, 1956]
Come on in and sit right down
And make yourself at home
Now, come on in and sit right down
And make yourself at home
If I had one wish, I wish I could
Go back to my old neighborhood
Where the good folk, they all love you as their own
Then I'd go over to my neighbor's house
Knock on the door and they'd all sing out
"Come on in and sit right down and make yourself at home"
I'd sing their praises long and loud
'Cause they're all my folks, and I'm mighty proud
Of the little old town back home where I was born
I wish that I could hear them say
In the good old-fashioned, friendly way
"Come on in and sit right down and make yourself at home"
Now, they don't lock their doors at night
'Cause they all know they're a-doing right
And the good Lord's bound to have them for his own
If I'd go back to hear them pray
In the little pine church, they all would say
"Come on in and sit right down and make yourself at home"
When I was a child of only three, I said my prayers at my mother's knee
And I knew right then from God I'd never roam
When I get my summons on the Judgment Day
I hope I can hear my Savior say
"Come on in and sit right down and make yourself at home
Now, come on in and sit right down and make yourself at home"
And make yourself at home
Now, come on in and sit right down
And make yourself at home
If I had one wish, I wish I could
Go back to my old neighborhood
Where the good folk, they all love you as their own
Then I'd go over to my neighbor's house
Knock on the door and they'd all sing out
"Come on in and sit right down and make yourself at home"
I'd sing their praises long and loud
'Cause they're all my folks, and I'm mighty proud
Of the little old town back home where I was born
I wish that I could hear them say
In the good old-fashioned, friendly way
"Come on in and sit right down and make yourself at home"
Now, they don't lock their doors at night
'Cause they all know they're a-doing right
And the good Lord's bound to have them for his own
If I'd go back to hear them pray
In the little pine church, they all would say
"Come on in and sit right down and make yourself at home"
When I was a child of only three, I said my prayers at my mother's knee
And I knew right then from God I'd never roam
When I get my summons on the Judgment Day
I hope I can hear my Savior say
"Come on in and sit right down and make yourself at home
Now, come on in and sit right down and make yourself at home"
