Come back home my pretty darlin
Come back home to Tennessee
I have missed your sweet lovin
Missed your soft warm huggin
You’ve been gone now for too long
Come back to my waiting arms
Little darlin hear my plea
Come back home to me
The days have been so very very cold
The nights seem to just drag on and on
No one to hold on to or to enfold
No breath on my cheek cause you’re still gone
The sweetness of your smile sent my heart soaring
The lilting of your voice echo’d like a lark
Sweet sweet angel of my mornings
Please come back to our ole farm
On your pillow every night sleeps little pug
And Bo and Peep your two sheep
Got into our corn
On Tuesday sweet Bessie Lou had a calf born
They all tell me they miss the singing of your songs
Angel of my heart hear my plea
Come back home to me
In Tennessee
