Sing Me Back Home — текст песни (jayhawks)

The warden led a prisoner

Down the hallway to his doom

And I stood up to say goodbye like all the rest

Then I heard him tell the warden

Theres a song my mama sang

Let my guitar playing friend, do my request



Chorus:

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



Well, I recall last sunday evening

When a choir came off the street

They came in singing a few old gospel songs

Then I heard him tell the warden

Just before he reached my cell

Wont you sing it once before we move along



(chorus)

Wont you sing me back home before I die
