Looking at a Heart That Needs a Home Songtext
von Waylon Jennings

(Harlan Howard)

I′m just a stranger in this town
I'm just a drifter looking round
I might stay a lifetime or a week
It all depends if I′ll find what I seek.

You're looking at a heart that needs a home
And a little girl to love me and me alone
One who wants a gentleman and accepts me like I am
You're looking at a heart that needs a home.


--- Instrumental ---

I thought I had found her many times
But love reserves the right to change it′s mind
I guess perhaps my ways are strange
But without this cast I can′t change.

You're looking at a heart that needs a home
And a little girl to love me and me alone
One who wants a gentleman and accepts me like I am
You′re looking at a heart that needs a home.

You're looking at a heart that needs a home...
