Back By Fall Lyrics - Singles - Maria Muldaur

There's cryin' in the city 

All the people are sayin' 

I heard it on the mountain 

Where I was living 

No food for the children 

Oh, the times are so bad 

Whatever happened to giving 

Oh mama, mend the hole in my coat 

Take my guitar off the wall 

I've got to go see what I can do 

And I hope I'll be back by fall

Ariana Grande Adds Her Own Verse To "Last Christmas" 

Summer was a dry one 

The wind burned across 

And the crows carried off 

What was left over 

Five nights in the valley lights burned 

The people did not stop 

As the damage they try to recover 

Oh mama, mend the hole in my coat 

Take my guitar off the wall 

I've got to go see what I can do 

And I hope I'll be back by fall 

There's lightning in the mountain 

And the wind blow so sweet 

I swear sometimes this must be heaven 

Don't look back, don't think about it 

Just think about the road beneath your feet 

Remember the gift that must be given

Oh mama, mend the hole in my coat 

Take my guitar off the wall 

I've got to go see what I can do 

And I hope I'll be back by fall
