Now the snow falls' round my window
But it can't chill my heart
God knows it died the day you left
When my dream world fell apart.
Got the weary blues from waitin'
Lord I've been waitin' so long
These blues have got me cryin'
Oh, sweet mama please come home
Through the tears I watch the young lovers
As they go strolling by.
For all those things that might have been
Lord, forgive me if I cry.
Got the weary blues from waitin'
Lord I've been waitin' so long
These blues have got me cryin'
Oh, sweet mama
Sweet mama won't you please come home
