The Wandering Boy |
| Out in the cold world and far away from home |
| Somebody’s boy is wandering alone |
| No one to guide him and keep his footsteps right |
| Somebody’s boy is homeless tonight |
| Out in the hallway there stands a vacant chair |
| Yonder’s the shoes my darling used to wear |
| Empty the cradle, the one that’s loved so well |
| How I miss him there’s no tongue can tell |
| Bring back my boy, my wandering boy |
| Far, far away, wherever he may be |
| Tell him his mother with faded cheeks and hair |
| At their old home is waiting him there |
| Oh, could I see him and fold him to my breast |
| Gladly I’d close my eyes and be at rest |
| There is no other that’s left to give me joy |
| Bring back my boy, my wandering boy |
| Well, I remember the parting words he said |
| We’ll meet again where no sad tears are shed |
| There’ll be no goodbyes in that bright land so fair |
| When done with life, I’ll meet you up there |
