Sing Me Back Home The Byrds
The warden led a 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 he reached my cell
Let my guitar playin apos friend do my request
Won apos t you sing me back home with the songs 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 mornin apos a choir came off the street
Came in to sing a few old gospel songs
I heard him tell the singers there apos s a song my mamma sang
Could I hear it once before you move along
Won apos t you sing me back home with the songs 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
Won apos t you sing me back home before i die
