Oh the fields were turning brown[00:00:17]
All around that southern town[00:00:19]
The boy came down the highway all alone[00:00:22]
And his face was looking sad[00:00:26]
He was thinking of his dad[00:00:28]
And his mother that he left at home sweet home[00:00:31]
Dear old mother how I miss you[00:00:35]
How I long for your sweet face and sunny smile[00:00:37]
I would give up all[00:00:42]
I own just to be with you at home[00:00:43]
And to linger there for just a little while[00:00:46]
Oh the morning glory vine[00:01:08]
Around the cabin door would twine[00:01:10]
And the mockingbird would sing along the tree[00:01:13]
Then we'd take our dear old book[00:01:17]
And go down beside the brook[00:01:19]
And there for hours she'd sit and read to me[00:01:21]
Dear old mother how I miss you[00:01:26]
How I long for your sweet face and sunny smile[00:01:28]
I would give up all[00:01:32]
I own just to be with you at home[00:01:34]
And to linger there for just a little while[00:01:37]
Now I'm in this world alone[00:01:58]
The old folks are not at home[00:02:01]
They've gone up to a happier home above[00:02:03]
The mockingbirds are singing yet[00:02:07]
And I never will forget[00:02:10]
My mother and dad were all I had to love[00:02:12]
Dear old mother how I miss you[00:02:16]
How I long for your sweet face and sunny smile[00:02:19]
I would give up all[00:02:23]
I own just to be with you at home[00:02:24]
And to linger there for just a little while[00:02:27]
