about

Peter Gabriel's second self titled solo album, originally released 1 June 1978

lyrics

Met this girl called Josephine and took her up on my machine
We had a little fun and now we got a little one
Had to get married, being chased out of town
Found ourselves a place to live, we put all our money down
Call it Home Sweet Home, home sweet home
Eleven floors up in a tower block
Happy just to have a home
I've gone and changed the lock on our home
Nothing really worked out right, things got broke,
They stayed that way
None of our friends came around at night and little Sam got
No place to play
"We've got to get out of here, Bill" she said "I've been telling
You all the while"
When I came home from work that night she'd jumped out the
Window with our child
From our Home Sweet Home, home sweet home
Just a place to take a rest, just a place to make our nest
We call it our home
When the insurance money came through seemed dirty didn't know what to do
Took the cash went down the casino, down on the wheel on the double
And I won, oh yes I won, like I never won before
Bought myself a country house with an antique carved oak door
It was Home Sweet Home, home sweet home
Just a place to lay our head think of all those things we said
About in our Home Sweet Home.
