Sing Me Back Home — текст песни (Merle Haggard)

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
