Sing Me Back Home	

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 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 we move along?'

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
