eric burdon & war - home cookin' (2025 remaster) lyrics

[intro]
you hear that sound?
that’s the sound of little feet
running away from home
little feet are always running away from home
to find bigger feet
and they usually end up getting kicked in the head

[verse 1]
i joined the navy at the age of seventeen
there were lots of places i had not been
i had a dream in my head about a little j+panese girl
and it wasn’t till i sailed halfway ’round the world

[chorus]
you know, you know
i miss good lookin’ women in my hometown
you know i miss warm cookin’ mama, that you lay down

[verse 2]
i found myself on the ‘frisco bay
getting high off the wind, a different chick every day
it wasn’t till i found myself down mexico way
with tears in my eyes, i was heard to say
you know, lord i said
[chorus]
i miss good lookin’ women in my hometown
you know i miss the home cookin’ mama, that you lay down

[verse 3]
so here i am, a million miles away from home
but i really do believe someday my time will come
then i’ll return the prodigal son
spend the rest of my days loving every single last one, yes

[chorus]
i miss good lookin’ women in my home town
yeah, you know i miss good lookin’ women, that you lay down
i miss the good cookin’ mama, that you used to lay down, yeah
you know i miss good lookin’ women
women, women, women here, women there, women everywhere, everywhere
old macdonald had a farm, on the farm he had some
women here, women there, women everywhere, now
women, women, women, women, mama, mama, in my hometown
i miss good lookin’ women in my hometown, yeah
you know that i miss good lookin’ women in my hometown
