Weary blues from waitin'
Lord, I've been waitin' so long
These blues have got me cryin'
Oh sweet mama, won't you please come home

The snow falls down my window
But it can't chill my heart
God knows that it died the day you left
My dream world fell apart, fell apart

Weary blues from waitin'
Lord, I've been waitin' so long
These blues have got me cryin'
Oh sweet mama, won't you please come home

Through tears I watch young lovers
As they go strollin' by
Oh, all the things that might have been
God forgive me if I cry, if I cry

Weary blues from waitin'
Lord, I've been waitin' so long
These blues have got me cryin'
Oh sweet mama, won't you please come home
Oh sweet mama, won't you please come home
