《There’s a Mother Always Waiting You At Home》歌词

[00:00:00] There's A Mother Always Waiting For You At Home - Pine Ridge Boys

[00:00:04] So you're going to leave the old home Jim

[00:00:08] Today you're going away

[00:00:11] You're going among the city folks to dwell"

[00:00:18] So spoke a kind old mother

[00:00:21] To her boy one summer day

[00:00:25] "If your mind's made up that way I wish you well

[00:00:32] The old home will be lonesome

[00:00:35] We'll miss you when you go

[00:00:39] The birds won't sing so sweet when you're not nigh

[00:00:45] But if you get in trouble Jim

[00:00:49] Just write and let us know"

[00:00:53] She spoke these words and then she said goodbye

[00:00:59] If sickness overtakes you

[00:01:03] And old companions shake you

[00:01:06] As through this world you wander all alone

[00:01:13] When friends you haven't any

[00:01:17] In your pocket not a penny

[00:01:20] There's a mother always awaiting you at home

[00:01:26] Ten years later to this village

[00:01:30] Came a stranger no one knew

[00:01:33] His steps were halt and ragged clothes he wore

[00:01:40] The little children laughed at him

[00:01:44] As down the lane he trod

[00:01:47] At last he stopped before a cottage door

[00:01:55] He gently knocked no sound he heard

[00:01:58] He thought "Can she be dead "

[00:02:01] But then he heard a voice well known to him

[00:02:08] Was his mother's voice but her hair had silvered

[00:02:12] By the touch of time

[00:02:15] And she said "Thank God they've sent me home my Jim"

[00:02:20] En

[00:02:35] When friends you haven't any

[00:02:39] In your pocket not a penny

[00:02:42] There's a mother always awaiting you at home
