Lizzie's Comin' Home Song Lyrics

---

HC
All right! All right! I’m comin’! I’m comin’! Dang telephone’s getting’ to be a nuisance.
Rings sometimes twice a day.

Hello! Yeah, this is HC. Un-huh. What do you mean—today? She’s here today?
Oh, my God! Well, thanks, Mildred. Thanks for callin’.

Boys, I got some good news! Your sister’s comin’ home early.

NOAH & JIM
Yippeeee!

HC
Boys, I got some bad news. Your sister’s comin’ home early.

JIM
Huh?

HC
She’ll be here directly in five minutes!

NOAH
Oh my God!

JIM
Now what’s so bad about that? All we gotta do is…

NOAH & JIM
Clean up!

HC
When Lizzie is here
The house is full of laughter.
When Lizzie is here
It has a woman’t touch.
When Lizzie is here
We get together after
Our supper is over,
Sit in the parlor,
Singing together,
When Lizzie is here.
When Lizzie is here,
I start to recall her Maw.

NOAH & JIM
And Lizzie is comin’ home!

HC
Lizzie is on the way!

HC & NOAH & JIM
Lizzie’s arrivin’ today!
Got to get busy!

HC
Fix up for Lizzie!
Lizzie’s comin’…

HC & NOAH & JIM
Home!

NOAH
When Lizzie is here
I don’t get indigestion.
When Lizzie is here
My appetite is fine.
When Lizzie is here
There’s never any question
There’s beefsteak with gravy.
Hot buttered biscuits,
Fresh apple crumble.
When Lizzie is here.
When Lizzie is here,
I eat’ll I nearly pop!

HC
And Lizzie is comin’ home!

JIM
Lizzie is on the way!

HC & NOAH & JIM
Lizzie’s arrivin’ today!

NOAH & JIM
Got to get busy,

HC
Fix up for Lizzie,

HC & NOAH & JIM
Lizzie’s comin’ home!

NOAH
C’mon, Jimmy, get a move on!

JIM
I’m tryin’ Noah!

NOAH
Well try harder!

JIM
When Lizzie is here
I never feel so gawky.
When Lizzie is here
I start to gettin’ talky.
She listens for hours,
Askin’ me questions.
I know the answers
When Lizzie is here.
When Lizzie is here,
I kinda forget… I’m dumb.

HC & NOAH
And Lizzie is comin’ home!

JIM
Lizzie is on the way!

HC & NOAH & JIM
Lizzie’s arrivin’ today!
(Hallelujah!)
Got to get busy,
Fix up for Lizzie.
Got to get hoppin’!
No time for stoppin’!
Lizzie’s comin’ …
Home!
