Mama Lullaby

Oh take me back to my dear Mother's home There's miles behind me, still miles to go And there's nothing to say Nothing to do Nothing, no nothing to keep me from you Take me home My soul is as worn as the soles of my shoes Each night my heart breaks on the evening news I get so tired From running around Comfort me, Mama Let me lay down Take me home Hush now, Baby Don't you cry When you wake Your Mama's standing by Bye and bye Sometimes at night when the world is asleep I hear a cry from the dark and the deep And I get so weary Day after day Comfort me, Mama, Take me away Take me home Hush now, Baby Don't you cry When you wake Your Mama's standing by Bye and bye Oh take me back to my dear Mother's home I knew it once when the world was still young And time don't slow down Keeps moving along I'm down on my knees, Mama, Singing this song Take me home Take me home Take me home Take me home
