Dear Mama, I'm coming home tomorrow
If you don't mind,
would you meet me at the train?
Dear Mama, my wandering days are over
And it's so good to be
coming home again
Dear Mama,
we'll walk the fields together
And through the valley
we will stroll hand in hand
And I just can't wait to see you
and touch the soil of home so clean.
But, I'm not the boy I used to be.
For I've been gone a way too long,
I've done everything that's wrong
But I think I've finally found myself at last
And just you wait and see,
another chance is all I need
But mama, I'm not the boy I
used to be
You see mama, I've spent time in prison
For a crime that is so bad
that I'm too ashamed to tell
And when you meet me
there tomorrow,
don't be surprised at what you see,
for mama, I'm not the boy I used to be.
Oh, I've been gone away too long,
I've done everything that's wrong.
But I think I finally found myself at last
And just you wait and see
Another chance is all I need
But Mom, I'm not the boy I
used to be
You
