[00:00:17] Oh the fields were turning brown

[00:00:19] All around that southern town

[00:00:22] The boy came down the highway all alone

[00:00:26] And his face was looking sad

[00:00:28] He was thinking of his dad

[00:00:31] And his mother that he left at home sweet home

[00:00:35] Dear old mother how I miss you

[00:00:37] How I long for your sweet face and sunny smile

[00:00:42] I would give up all

[00:00:43] I own just to be with you at home

[00:00:46] And to linger there for just a little while

[00:01:08] Oh the morning glory vine

[00:01:10] Around the cabin door would twine

[00:01:13] And the mockingbird would sing along the tree

[00:01:17] Then we'd take our dear old book

[00:01:19] And go down beside the brook

[00:01:21] And there for hours she'd sit and read to me

[00:01:26] Dear old mother how I miss you

[00:01:28] How I long for your sweet face and sunny smile

[00:01:32] I would give up all

[00:01:34] I own just to be with you at home

[00:01:37] And to linger there for just a little while

[00:01:58] Now I'm in this world alone

[00:02:01] The old folks are not at home

[00:02:03] They've gone up to a happier home above

[00:02:07] The mockingbirds are singing yet

[00:02:10] And I never will forget

[00:02:12] My mother and dad were all I had to love

[00:02:16] Dear old mother how I miss you

[00:02:19] How I long for your sweet face and sunny smile

[00:02:23] I would give up all

[00:02:24] I own just to be with you at home

[00:02:27] And to linger there for just a little while
