Waiting For My Child To Come Home Lyrics

I was talking to a lady a few days ago
and these are the words she said
if you see my child somewhere as you journey here and there
tell him I'm waiting for my child to come home.

I am waiting and waiting for my child to come
I'm waiting and waiting for my child to come
if you can't come home will you please send me a letter
a letter would mean so much to me, yes it will

Lord my child may be somewhere on his sick bed Lord
with no one there to rub his aching head...Oh yes Jesus

Lord my child is somewhere in some lonely jail
Lord with no one there to post his bail, oh Lord
listen if I only knew what town my child was in
I'll be there on that early morning train
then no matter what's crime Lord you know this child is mine
and I'm waiting for my child to come home.
