Letter From Home Lyrics - Alecia Nugent

A letter from home came this morning 

And each line on that handwritten page 

Drew a picture of life in Louisiana 

And just how long that I've been away 

Dear daughter, we love you and miss you 

So I thought I would drop you a line 

Just to tell you how we long to see you 

And to say that we're doing just fine 

I don't know all the people who've told me 

That they've stayed up way past their bedtime 

Just to see you, sing and play in California 

On the TV last Saturday night 

Your Dad heard your song in New Orleans 

And he told me that he felt so proud 

That he pulled alongside of the highway 

And he turned up that radio loud 

Are you taking good care of yourself, dear 

Are those city folks treating you well 

If you need anything you can call us 

We love you more than just words could ever tell 

I remember when you were just a baby 

The best years that we've ever had 

Until they're gone we'll forever remember 

Love always, your Momma and Dad 

Love always, your Momma and Dad
