"Home" is the title of a song written and recorded by American country music artist Alan Jackson. A moderate up-tempo in which Jackson recalls his and his parents' upbringing as a child in the state of Georgia, "Home" was originally recorded by him on his 1989 debut album Here in the Real World. The original 1989 recording served as the B-side to three of Jackson's singles: his debut single "Blue Blooded Woman", as well as his first two Number One hits "I'd Love You All Over Again" and "Don't Rock the Jukebox".^[1]

Jackson re-recorded "Home" in 1995 for his first Greatest Hits package, The Greatest Hits Collection. This re-recording served as the B-side to that album's first two singles ("Tall, Tall Trees" and "I'll Try"), finally being issued in 1996 as the album's third single. In mid-1996, "Home" reached a peak of #3 on the Billboard Hot Country Singles & Tracks (now Hot Country Songs) charts.
