Lizzie’s Comin’ Home Lyrics by John Cullum

110 in the Shade (2007 Broadway Revival)

2007

[The phone rings.]
[H.C., spoken]
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 H.C. 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!
[JIM & NOAH, spoken]
Alright! Woohoo!
[H.C., spoken]
Boys, I got some bad news. Your sister's comin' home early.
[JIM, spoken]
Huh?
[H.C., spoken]
She'll be here directly in five minutes!
[NOAH, spoken]
Oh, my God.
[JIM, spoken]
Now, what’s so bad about that? All we gotta do is...
[JIM & NOAH, spoken]
Clean up!
[H.C.]
When Lizzie is here
The house is full of laughter
When Lizzie is here
It has a woman's 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
[JIM & NOAH]
And Lizzie is comin' home!
[H.C.]
Lizzie is on the way!
[H.C., JIM & NOAH]
Lizzie's arrivin' today!
Got to get busy!
[H.C.]
Fix up for Lizzie!
Lizzie's comin'—
[H.C., JIM & NOAH]
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!
[H.C.]
And Lizzie is comin' home!
[JIM]
Lizzie is on the way!
[H.C., JIM & NOAH]
Lizzie's arrivin' today!
[JIM & NOAH]
Got to get busy
[H.C.]
Fix up for Lizzie
[H.C., JIM & NOAH]
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 feelin' bright
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
[H.C. & NOAH]
And Lizzie is comin' home!
[JIM]
Lizzie is on the way!
[H.C., JIM & NOAH]
Lizzie's arrivin' today!
(spoken)
Hallelujah!
(sung)
Got to get busy
Fix up for Lizzie
Got to get hoppin'
No time for stoppin'!
Lizzie’s comin'
Home!
