Smokey River Boys - Suppertime lyrics

rate me

Verse Number One:

When I was just a boy in days of childhood….

I used to play till evening shadows come….

Then winding down an old familiar pathway….

I heard my mother call at set of sun….

The Chorus:

Come home…come home…it’s suppertime

The shadows lengthen fast…

Come home…come home…it’s suppertime

We’re goin’ home at last…..

Verse Number Two:

One day beside her bedside I was kneeling….

And angel wings were winnowing….the air….

She heard the call for Suppertime in heaven…

And now I know she’s waiting for me there….

The Chorus:

Come home…come home…it’s suppertime

The shadows lengthen fast…..

Come home…come home…it’s suppertime

We’re goin’ home at last…..

Verse Number Three:

In visions now I see her standing yonder….

And her familiar voice I hear once more….

The banquet table’s ready up in Heaven….

And it’s suppertime upon the golden shore….

The Chorus:

Come home…come home…it’s suppertime

The shadows lengthen fast…..

Come home…come home…it’s suppertime

We’re goin’ home at last…..

Tag:(spoken over the out)

Mom, it won’t be long now…

We’ll be having suppertime together
