Lyrics

[Verse 1] I bought an old home in Del Rio Status-quo stucco looked like the Alamo Neighbor Jethro brought by his fresco Lo and behold he showed where good neighbors abode He offered tobacco to which I vetoed I said I only smoke alone separate and solo He wanted to know how I liked Del Rio And if the lack of snow had made it all perfecto And I replied [Chorus] Oh, why here it's so-so But it is no, no Colorado I miss my home and the cocoa I wanna go home [Verse 2] He helped me unload my piano And then I played him oh a favorite concerto He yelled profundo while I played allegro And then he tip-tap-toed through my accelerandos Gave him a banjo and said "strum what you know" Then I pretended I was Dinos my old maestro He kept in tempo and I said bravo He picked the dearest notes that gave me thoughts of sweet hope [Chorus] [Verse 3] After the song show I offered jam and toast He said he'd forego and he left to tend his young goats So I unpacked soap, found my bathrobe And decided it'd be nice to sit and soak On the backbone of the commode I placed a family photo then let out a sad moan Then a new groan of hunger followed And I bought two tacos and an H20 to go Yeah there is no place no, no place quite like your home [Chorus]
