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' Them 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 thank the Lord? Lord! 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
