Dreaming Of Home
                                            by David Michael Jackson


I'm big in Fallujah
Afghanistan thinks I'm hot
and Kabul is just just
around the bend.
It's a big old world
I'm standing on this spot,
dreaming of home again.


Oh I'm big on Paducah.
I think Camden's hot
and Bowling Green is
the best I've seen.
It's a big old world
I'm standing on this spot,
dreaming of home again.

So I'll dream of home
for another night.
I'll try for another day
to do my job the best I can
in this faraway
faraway place.

I'm big in Berlin,
Stuttgart thinks I'm hot
and Seoul is just
around the bend.
It's a big old world
I guess I'm not
because I'm
dreaming of home again.

Oh I'm big on Paducah
I think Camden's hot
and Bowling Green is
the best I've seen.
It's a big old world
I'm standing on this spot,
dreaming of home again.

It's a big old world
I'm in a far away land,
wishing, hoping, loving,
wanting, thinking,
dreaming of home again.
