Weary blues from waitin'

Lord, I've been waitin' too long

These blues have got me cryin'

Oh, sweet mama, please come home



The snow falls 'round my window

But it can't chill my heart

God knows it died the day you left

My dream world fell apart



Weary blues from waitin'

Lord, I've been waitin' too long

These blues have got me cryin'

Oh, sweet mama, 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



Weary blues from waitin'

Lord, I've been waitin' too long

These blues have got me cryin'

Oh, sweet mama, please come home
