Met this girl called Josephine and took her up on my machine
We had a little fun and now we got a little one
Had to get married, being chased out of town
Found ourselves a place to live, we put all our money down

call it Home Sweet Home, home sweet home
Eleven floors up in a tower block
happy just to have a home
I've gone and changed the lock on our home

Nothing really worked out right, things got broke,
they stayed that way
None of our friends came around at night and little Sam got
no place to play
"We've got to get out of here, Bill" she said "I've been telling
you all the while"
When I came home from work that night she'd jumped out the
window with our chiled


from our Home Sweet Home, home sweet home
just a place to take a rest, just a place ot make our nest
-- we call it our home

When the insurance money came through seemed dirty didn't
know what to do
Took the cash went down the casino, down on the wheel
on the double
And I won, oh yes I won, like I never won before
Bought myself a country house with an antique carved
oak door

it was Home Sweet Home, home sweet home
just a place to lay our head think of all those things we said
about in our Home Sweet Home.

Peter Gabriel foi vocalista do Genesis até 1975

Gabriel se reuniu aos antigos colegas de Genesis em 1982. A reunião aconteceu porque ele precisava cobrir os prejuízos que tinha tido com o WOMAD, o festival de world music criado por ele.

O disco So de 1986 foi o maior sucesso comercial de Peter Gabriel. Chegou ao segundo lugar da parada americana e rendeu os hits (e clipes inovadores) Sledgehammer e Big Time.

Gabriel também compôs trilhas para cinema como as de "Asas da Liberdade" de Alan Parker e "A Última Tentação de Cristo" de Martin Scorsese.

Peter Gabriel é dono do estúdio Real World. Os rendimentos do estúdio ajudam a manter Peter como um dos músicos mais ricos da Inglaterra.
