Sad and alone in a mansion no loving wife to caress
Sat a man sad and lonely no loving wife's lips to kiss
She married him for position no love in her heart had she
Sad and alone in his fine home he looked all around him and said
What is home without a baby to love and kiss and adore
What is home without a wife to kiss you each night at the door
What is home without sunshine to spread its bright rays from above
You can have wealth and its pleasure but what is home without love
Walking down the street one evening we passed the cottage so neat
Stopped and looked in the window, he saw there a picture so neat
A husband, a wife and a baby they were huggin' and kissin' too
He turned aside, his tears to hid and from his lips came these words
