Bring Back to Me My Wandering Boy [core] Out in the cold world and far away from home Some mother's boy is wandering all alone With no one to guide him or keep his footsteps right Some mother's boy is homeless tonight
Bring me back my boy, my wandering boy Far, far away, wherever it may be Tell him his mother, with faded cheeks and hair Is at the old home awaiting him there
Out in the hallway, there stands a vacant chair And an old pair of shoes he used to wear Empty's the cradle he used to love so well Oh, how I miss him, no tongue can tell
Well I remember those parting words he said We'll meet up again where tears are never shed There'll be no goodbyes in that land so fair When life is over, I'll meet you up there.
