Thread Name: Lyr Req: Home (from Joe Diffie)
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: 'Home, where my mama sang Amazing Grace
Genie, it was Diffie.

"Joe Diffie landed his -own contract when Epic Records signed him in 1990. He immediately rewarded the company's faith in him by taking five of his first six singles straight to No. 1. Diffie cowrote two of those smashes, "'If You Want Me To" and "New Way To Light Up An Old Flame." The other four "Home," "If The Devil Danced (In Empty Pockets)," "Is It Cold In Here" and "Ships That Don't Come In" -- remain among the most memorable country performances of 1990-91."

I expect you would find it by checking his discography. If that's a problem, please let me know and I'll go have a look. I'd expect "Home" to be on a Greatest Hits compilation.
