No more
will I roam and ramble
No more will I go astray
Cause I'm going back home to my mother
And kiss all her tears away
No more will I be a drunkard
And I've dealt my last hand of jobs
I'm going back to dear old Texas
And forever abide by the law
I know that my mother is lonely
And I know for me each night she prays
And I know she'd give the
whole world if only
She could hear me as I often say
Mother, you know that I love you
And Mother, I'm coming home
And I swear by the stars up above you,
that no more will I ever roam.
Oh, lady, oh, lady, lady, lady,
lady, lady, oh, lady
Mother, you know that I love you
And mother I'm coming home
And I swear by the stars up above you
That no more will I ever roam
Howl -a -lady, howl -a -lady, yeah,
howl -a -lady, yeah, howl -a -lady.
