Lyrics:

Overlookin' Somerville as far as I could see
A great stretch of land and it all belonged to me
The sun was risin' and a-chasin' off the night
Leavin' in its wake fields of cotton gleamin' white
Home, this is my home
Home, this is my home

Then came winter and I had to go to war
Never once thinkin' it would ever go this far
Bloom began to fall and the fields were turnin' brown
Blue and gray fields everywhere before she went down
Home, this is my home
Home, this is my home
My home

Though not a man of property, I owned a general store
Was tellin' them with pride as I was before the war
Men will never see again the glory that was mine
The memory of Somerville will stay for all time
Home, this is my home
Home, this is my home
Somerville
My home
Home, this is my home
Home, this is my home
