[Verse 1]
The warden led the prisoner down the hallway to his doom
I stood up to say goodbye like all the rest
I heard him tell the warden just before they reached my cell
"Let my guitar-playin' friend sing my request"
[Chorus]
Sing me back home a song I used to hear
Make my old memories come alive
Sing me away, and turn back the years
Sing me home before I die
[Verse 2]
I recall Sunday morning when the 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 travel on?"
[Chorus]
Sing me back home a song I used to hear
Make my old memories come alive
Sing me away and turn back the years
Sing me back home before I die
[Instrumental Break]
