I Wonder How The Old Folks Are At Home

 

Well I wonder how the old folks are at home

I wonder if they miss me while I roam

I wonder if they pray for the boy who went away

And left his dear old parents all alone

 

You could hear the cattle lowing in the lane

You could see the fields of blue grass where I've grown

You could almost hear them cry as they kissed their boy goodbye

Well I wonder how the old folks are at home

 

Just a village and a homestead on the farm

And a mother's love to shield you from all harm

A mother's love so true, a sweetheart that loves you

A village and a homestead on the farm
