Goodbye Mother Lyrics - Singles - The Five Blind Boys Of Alabama

Goodbye, Mother, I'm sorry, sorry to my heart 

So long, Mother, I'm sorry that we have to part 

But you can look for me, won't you look for me? 

I'll be home soon, Lord have mercy, Jesus 

So long, Mother, I got tears, tears, tears are all in my eyes 

Farewell, Mother, I run down and wave, wave my last goodbye 

But you can look for me somewhere in glory 

'Coz I'll be home soon, Lord have mercy, Jesus 

I want you to just sleep on Mother 

Please Ma, I want you to take your rest 

Yes, I love you, Mother, but I believe God loves you best, oh Lord 

But you can look for me somewhere in glory 

'Coz I'll be home soon, Lord have mercy, Jesus 

Just the other day, they tell me, Mother 

They laid you, laid you in the new barren ground 

Lord have mercy, I wasn't there when they laid your body down 

Lord help your boy, but one thing I want you to do for me, Mother 

I want you to look for me somewhere in glory, I'll be home soon
