Come On Home Boy Lyrics

He got a letter saying guess you don't remember me But I'm the girl that you courted before you ran away to sea You never even wrote a letter even to your mom and dad Now it's too late to write your daddy and your mama's feeling mighty bad Won't you come on home boy come on home boy Your mama's all alone since your dad's been gone Well come on home boy come on home boy Your mama's mighty blue from missing you Well he caught him a train up in Frisco headin' back to Tennessee Thinking of a mom and daddy that used to rock him on their knees No more fishing in the creek with daddy no huntin' when the leaves turn brown Every turn of the wheel seemed to tell him son you gone and let us down Won't you come on home boy... He walked up to the cabin as it was gettin' dark So blue by the doorstep wondered why he didn't bark He called but nobody answered he looked around and then he cried Underneath the weeping willow were two crosses side by side Won't you come on home boy... Yeah your mama's mighty blue from missing you
