1
One night while the moon from heaven was shining
2
My mother was praying for me to come home
3
She asked her dear lord watch o'er me out yonder
4
To send me back home to never more roam
5
When I left my old home way back in the mountains
6
I said I'd return with honor and fame
7
But a young reckless heart turned wrong at the crossroads
8
And now as I go home I bring mother shame
9
When I got to the place where I spent my childhood
10
The silvery moon was shining so bright
11
When I asked my dear friends to tell me of mother
12
They said she was called on to heaven last night
13
She told them of how she was longing to see me
14
How lonely her home since I went away
15
Said darling repent and ask for forgiveness
16
And meet mother there in heaven some day
17
Mother has gone to live with the angels
18
Her soul is at rest around the great throne
19
Now I have no one left here to advise me
20
For mother no longer awaits me at home
