Goin' Home
I wish de day was neah at han'
I'ze tiahed of dis grievin' lan'
I'ze tiahed of de lonely yeahs;
I want to des dry up my teahs
An go 'long home.
I'ze tiahed of dis grievin' lan'
I'ze tiahed of de lonely yeahs;
I want to des dry up my teahs
An go 'long home.
Oh, Mastah, won't you sen' de call;
My frien's is daih, my hope, my all.
I'ze waitin' whaih de road is rough
I want to hyeah you say: “Enough,
Ole man! Come home.”
My frien's is daih, my hope, my all.
I'ze waitin' whaih de road is rough
I want to hyeah you say: “Enough,
