The song, which debuts March 11, will air each week as the farewell theme for contestants leaving the show. "Home Sweet Home will release as a digital single, found exclusively at iTunes through March 16, and will subsequently be available at online music retailers everywhere.
Underwood, 19 Recordings and Sony Music Nashville will donate a portion of the sales proceeds to The Humane Society of the United States.

Underwood won American Idol in 2005.
