Carola (Standertskjold) - Suppertime lyrics

rate me

(Music and lyrics by Irvin Berlin)

(Recorded 5.6.1966, released 2004)

Supper time

I should set the table

'cause it's supper time

Somehow I'm not able

'cause that man o'mine

Ain't comin' home no more

Supper time

Kids will soon be yellin'

For their supper time

How'll I keep from tellin'

that man o'mine

Ain't comin' home no more?

How'll I keep explainin' when they ask me where he's gone?

How'll I keep from cryin' when I bring their supper on?

How can I remind them to pray at their humble board?

How can I be thankful when they start to prey the Lord

Oh, Lord!

Supper time

I should set the table

'cause it's supper time

Somehow I'm not able

'cause this man o'mine

Ain't comin' home no more.

Ain't comin' home no more.
