[00:09.32]The warden led a prisoner down the hallway to his doom
[00:17.48]I stood up to say good-bye like all the rest
[00:26.32]And I heard him tell the warden just before he reached my cell
[00:35.00]Let my guitar playing friend do my request
[00:43.73]Let him Sing me back home with a song I used to hear
[00:53.01]Make my old memories come alive
[01:01.62]Take me away and turn back the years
[01:10.24]Sing Me Back Home before I die
[01:18.73]I recall last Sunday morning a choir from 'cross the street
[01:27.35]Came to sing a few old gospel songs
[01:35.95]And I heard him tell the singers There's a song my mama sang
[01:44.87]Can I hear once before we move along'
[01:53.99]Sing me back home  the song my mama sang
[02:02.75]Make my old memories come alive
[02:11.37]Take me away and turn back the years
[02:20.06]Sing Me Back Home before I die
[03:29.96]Sing Me Back Home before I die
