Oh weary blues from waiting
Lord I've been waiting so long
These blues get me crying
Oh sweet mama
won't you please come home
Snow falls down my window
but it can't chill my heart
God knows that it died the day you left
my dream world fell apart
Fell apart
Oh weary blues from waiting
Lord I've been waiting so long
These blues get me crying
Oh sweet mama
won't you please come home
Through tears I watch young lovers
as they go strolling by
Oh all the things that might have been
God forgive me if I cry
If I cry
Oh weary blues from waiting
Lord I've been waiting so long
These blues get me cryin'
Oh sweet mama
won't you please come home
Oh sweet mama
won't you please come home
