[Verse 1]
The warden led the prisoner down the hallway to his doom
I stood up to say goodbye like all the rest
And 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 back home before I die
[Verse 2]
I recall last Sunday morning when 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 momma sang
Can I hear it before you travel on?"
[Chorus]
Sing me back home, a song I used to hear
Make my old memories come alive (Come alive, oh Lordy)
Sing me away, and turn back the years
Sing me back home before I die
[Instrumental break]
