If I were rich, I'd buy a piece of land Miles outta town, I'd work the ground with my own hands I'd call up all my friends, say Pack your things 'cause you're movin' in If I had the cash and didn't need no loan We'd fill up God's creation with all our tiny homes And I know it's kinda hippie, well Then maybe, so is Heaven, who knows? But if home is where your heart is, mine ain't on a map It's built inside the beauty of the souls that make me laugh And if life is what we make it, I say let's make it fun 'Cause the journey's full of trouble, but there's joy in who you love If I were rich, I know just what I'd do I'd save a little plot and tell my folks it's time to move It'd be nice to see their faces just A little bit more than I'm used to Hey, Mom, I sure miss you But if home is where your heart is, mine ain't on a map It's built inside the beauty of the souls that make me laugh And if life is what we make it, I say let's make it fun 'Cause the journey's full of trouble, but there's joy in who you love I guess that I'm dreamin' a little much Truth is, life ain't perfect, we were never promised such And when we finally get to Heaven, all That gold will be trodded on like dust So if home is where your heart is, mine ain't on a map It's built inside a kingdom where the mornin' always lasts And if life is what we make it, I say just give it up My Father's plans are better and they're formed with perfect love I'd still be rich without a dollar to my name Got family, friends, and Jesus, so forever, I'll give thanks
