Sing Me Back Home (2001 Digital Remaster)

The warden led a prisoner down

The hallway to his doom

And I stood up to say goodbye like all the rest

And I heard him tell the warden

Just before he reached my cell

Let my guitar picking friend do my request

Let him sing me back home with a song

I used to hear

And make my old memories come alive

And take me away and turn back the years

Sing me back home before I die

I recall last Sunday morning

A choir from off the streets

Came in to sing a few old gospel songs

And I heard him tell the singers

There's a song my mama sang

Could I hear it once before you move along

Won't cha sing me back home

With the 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

Sing me back home before I die
