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!
