Bilingual
The warden led the prisoner down the hallway to his doom
I stood up to say goodbye like all the rest
And I heard him tell the warden just before they reached my cell
"Let my guitar-playing friend fill my request"
Sing me back home a song I used to hear
Make my old memories come alive
Sing me away and turn back the years
Sing me back home before I die
I recall last Sunday mornin' when a choir from off the street
Came in to sing a few old gospel songs
And I heard him tell the singers, "There's a song my Mama sang
Could I hear it once before you travel on?"
Sing me back home a song I used to hear
Make my old memories come alive (oh), come alive (come alive, oh)
Sing me away and turn back the years
Sing me back home before I die, I die

I recall last Sunday morning when a choir from off the street
Came in to sing a few old gospel songs
And I heard him tell the singers, "There's a song my Mom, Mama sang
Could I hear it once before you travel on?"
Sing me back home a song I used to hear
Make my old memories come alive (come alive, oh)
Sing me away and turn back the years
Sing me back home before I die
Sing me back home before I die

Thank you

We're busy deciding what we're gonna do next
ย
The reason why we're tuning up so much
Is so it'll sound good, 'cause nothing's too good for you
And if Frank is still listening, this one's for you
