Irving Berlin

I Love To Stay At Home
[1st verse:] I don't go out nights I'm not about nights I'll tell you why I never roam I love my home, so cozy The dizzy night life may be the right life But I don't like that kind of fun At night when my work is done [Refrain:] I just love to stay at home in the evening When the winter nights are cold I love to sit around the fire harmonizing "Darling, I am growing old" While Mother darns my father's woolen hosiery He's telling yarns of how he fought in "sixty-three" I don't envy the cocktail sippers Give me my carpet slippers For I love to stay at home [2nd verse:] My cousin Mary She's a canary Each night she sings the Rosary It sounds to me like Melba When Uncle Louie who looks like Dewey Recites "The picture on the wall" It's simply Heaven, that's all From Letras Mania
