First Meeting

Sonny Terry

Tell me how long had it been since you've been home
Tell me how long had it been since you've been home
You knew you could leave, you could be gone too long, too long from home

You know my mama's got a rockin' chair sittin' by the window,
rocks in the evenin' 'fore the sun go down
Yes, poor old mama's got a rockin' chair sittin' by the window,
rocks in the evenin' 'fore the sun go down
She'll be thinkin' 'bout her poor childrens, wonderin' why they won't come around
Oh, ooooh, yes

Mama don't worry, please mama don't worry, mama don't worry, just pray for me
I'm gonna try to make lot of happy
I'm on pray with you, please my mama pray for me

Mama she's still rockin', in that old rockin' chair
Yes, she's still rockin', in that old rockin' chair
She's thinkin' 'bout her childrens, wonderin' why aren't they over here

My sister got worry, she began to pray
Oh, yeah, mama know I've been away many day
Oh, mama got worry, these the word my mama said

Come on home children, my shack fallin' down
Come on home, my shack fallin' down
You know to send for my poor mama's cover so high
Ain't none of her childrens around, but I'm hurryin', I'm goin' home
