The Prodigal Son — текст песни (Hank Williams)

Recorded by hank williams, sr.

Words and music by jenkins



[g] a prodigal son once [c] strayed from his [g] father

To travel a land of [a] hunger and [d] pain

And [g] now I can see the [c] end of my [g] journey

Im going to [d] heaven a-[g] gain.



I leave you the day, to help all your neighbors

I leave you the night, to solemnly pray

So try to repent and ask for forgiveness

Well meet up in heaven, someday.



Goodbye to this world, with all its sorrows

Goodbye to the fields, that I used to roam

Im going away where, life is eternal

My shepherd is callin me home.



From out of the sky, hes coming to meet me

To wash all my sins and call me his own

His servants will bring, a ring for my finger

And never no more will I roam.
