Sing Me Back Home

The warden led a prisoner down the hallway to his doom

I stood up to say good-bye like all the rest

And I heard him tell the warden just before he reached my

cell

'Let my guitar playing friend do my request.' (Let

him...)

Sing me back home with a song I used to hear

Make my old memories come alive

Take me away and turn back the years

Sing Me Back Home before I die

I recall last Sunday morning a choir from 'cross the

street

Came to sing a few old gospel songs

And I heard him tell the singers 'There's a song my mama

sang.

Can I hear once before we move along?'

Sing me back home, the song my mama sang

Make my old memories come alive

Take me away and turn back the years

Sing Me Back Home before I die

Sing Me Back Home before I die
