Lyrics

In small town down in Georgia
 Over forty years ago
 Her maiden name was Musey
 'Till she met that Jackson boy
 They married young like folks did then
 Not a penny to their name
 They believed the one you vowed to love
 Should always stay the same
 And on the land his daddy gave him
 A foundation underway
 For a love to last forever
 Or until their dying days
 They built a bond that's strong enough
 To stand the test a time
 And a place for us to turn to
 When our lives were in bind
 And they made their house from a toolshed
 Grandaddy rolled out on two logs
 And they built walls all around it
 And they made that house a home
 And they taught us 'bout good living
 And taught us right from wrong
 Lord, there'll never be another place
 In this world that I'll call home
 ♪
 My mama raised five children
 Four girls and there was me
 She found her strength in faith of God
 And a love of family
 She never had a social life
 Home was all she knew
 Except the time she took a job
 To pay a bill or two
 And my daddy skinned his knuckles
 On the cars that he repaired
 He never earned much money
 But he gave us all he had
 He never made the front page
 But he did the best he could
 Folks drove the cars from miles around
 And let 'em look underneath the hood
 And they made their house from a toolshed
 Grandaddy rolled out on two logs
 And they built walls all around it
 And they made that house a home
 And they taught us 'bout good living
 And taught us right from wrong
 Lord, there'll never be another place
 In this world that I'll call home
 There'll never be another place
 In this world that I'll call home
