Letter from Home Lyrics


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 awayDear 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 fineI 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 nightYour 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 loudAre 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 tellI 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

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

She would later combine it with a traditional country style, but Alecia Nugent grew up surrounded by traditional bluegrass music. Her father started the Southland Bluegrass Band the year Nugent was born, and when she was old enough she joined the band and sang lead on Holly Dunn's hit, "Daddy's Hands." She was the band's lead vocalist by her late teens, adding some of the gutsy style of her favorite singer, Reba McEntire.
