Sing Me Back Home - Don Williams

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 off the street

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 you

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.

Sing Me Back Home before I die…
