a 1922 popular song
Words and melody by Hannah Kingston Marr
The sheet music:
Accompaniment:
Lyrics
- Some long for riches and splendor
Some for a friend staunch and true
Some for a babe sweet and tender
Dear, one, I want only you
Chorus:
All I want is to be comfy, in a dear old fashioned home
And I want a little mumsy, just a girl to call my own
Just a bright love gleaming fireside, with a comfy nook for two
Someone waiting with her arms wide, I’d be comfy, my dear with you
- Some spend their days a-midst pleasure
Some find content just alone
Others seek only for treasure
Heaven means to me, you and home
