Slim Dusty - When It's Lamplighting Time In The Valley lyrics

Your rating:

There's a light burning bright in a cabin

In a window it's shining for me

And I know that my mother is praying

For her boy she is longing to see





When it's lamp lighting time in the valley

Then in dreams I go back to my home

I can see that old light in the window

It will guide me wherever I roam





In the lamplight each night I can see her

As she rocks in her chair to and fro

Though she prays that I'll come back to see her

Still I know that I never can go





When it's lamplighting time in the valley

Then in dreams I go back to my home

But I've sinned against my home and my loved ones

And now I must evermore roam





So she lights up the lamp and keeps waiting

For she knows not the crime I have done

But I'll change all my ways and I'll meet her

Up in Heaven when life's race is run





When it's lamp lighting time in the valley

Then in dreams I go back to my home

I can see that old light in the window

It will guide me wherever I roam
