No not a word no not a word
|
No not a word from home anyhome
|
|
If only I could hear just one little word
|
From Mother and Daddy my heart would fill with cheer
|
Each day I take a walk I travel down the trail
|
Each day the postman tells me no letter in the mail
|
|
If only I could hear one little word from home
|
My heart would be so flattered I never more would roam
|
The days have turned to weeks the weeks have turned to years
|
Without one little word from ones I love so dear
|
|
The last time Mother wrote they were all okay
|
But I'm getting worried they're getting old and gray
|
Each night I say a player and I always say
|
I'll start home tomorrow I can't live on this way
|
