Suppertime — текст песни (Ella Fitzgerald)

Supper time

I should set the table

cause its supper time

Somehow Im not able

cause that man omine

Aint comin home no more



Supper time

Kids will soon be yellin

For their supper time

Howll I keep from tellin

Them that man omine

Aint comin home no more?



Howll I keep explainin when they ask me where hes gone?

Howll I keep from cryin when I bring their supper on?

How can I remind them to pray at their humble board?

How can I be thankful when they start to thank the lord

Lord!



Supper time

I should set the table

cause its supper time

Somehow Im not able

cause that man omine

Aint comin home no more
