[00:01.62]The warden led a prisoner down the hallway to his doom
[00:19.27]I stood up to say goodbye like all the rest
[00:26.22]And I heard him tell the warden just before he reached my cell
[00:36.73]'Let my guitar playing friend do my request.' (Let him)
[00:44.54]Sing me back home with a song I used to hear
[00:54.33]And make my old memories come alive
[01:02.09]And take me away and turn back the years
[01:11.59]And sing me back home before I die
[01:17.89]I recall last Sunday morning a choir from 'cross the street
[01:31.06]Came in to sing a few old gospel songs
[01:38.76]And I heard him tell the singers 'There's a song my mama sang
[01:49.33]Could I hear once before we move along?'
[01:55.64]Let him sing me back home with the song I used to hear
[02:05.84]And make my old memories come alive
[02:12.82]Take me away and turn back the years
[02:23.77]And sing me back home before I die
[02:30.28]Sing me back home before I die
