Gone back home to see my Mumma Gone back home to see my Dad I'm gonna see my brothers and sisters And relive the greatest happiness I've had The old home place Will sure look good now There stands Mumma at the door I'm so lonesome for the old place And I'm never ever gonna leave no more On a hill not far away There's a place I used t play Where I spent many happy hours 'till I was grown Then I wandered away, 10 years ago today Then I've come home and found the old place is gone Instrumental Where's the tree we used to play on Just my brothers, sisters and me Like a part of me they're gone now But time can't take away the memories Mumma sang which sure is good now And Dads to tell me what to do But there's no one for me to turn to Oh Lord tell me what am I gonna do On a hill I stand to day Where's the place I used to play God help me here I stand, I'm all alone Yes I wandered back today From the years I've thrown away Now I've come home and found the old place is gone Now I've come home and found the old place is gone
