"My Mother Is Lonely" lyrics

No more will I roam and ramble
No more will I go astray
'Cause I'm going back home to my mother
And kiss all her tears away

No more will I be a drunkard
And I've dealt my last hand of draw
I'm going back to dear old Texas
And forever abide by the law

I know that my mother is lonely
And I know for me, each night she prays
And I know she'd give the whole world if only
She could hear me as I often say:
"Mother, you know that I love you
And Mother, I'm coming home
And I swear by the stars up above you
That no more will I ever roam"

"Mother, you know that I love you
And Mother, I'm coming home
And I swear by the stars up above you
That no more will I ever roam"
