Lyrics Bill Monroe

Bill Monroe

I'm Coming Back But I Don't Know When

I'm going down this lonesome road

To see my fate or victory

God must help us there to win

I'm coming back but I don't know when

I hate to leave my mother dear

My father who is old and gray

But my true love I know you'll wait

For me to come back to me to stay

Will you be here when I come home

Or will your love fade like a rose

I could never come back should you be gone

My love for you nobody knows
