Weary blues from waiting
Lord, I've been waiting too long
These blues have got me crying
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 waiting
Lord, I've been waitin' too long
These blues have got me crying
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 waiting
Lord, I've been waitin' too long
These blues have got me crying
Oh, sweet mama, please come home
