Testo Waiting For My Child - Mavis Staples
Testo della canzone Waiting For My Child (Mavis Staples), tratta dall'album Live: Hope At The Hideout
I was talking to a lady just a few days ago
And these are the words she said
If you see my child somewhere
As you journey here and there
Tell him I'm waiting for my child to come home
I am waiting, waiting for my child to come
I'm waiting and watching for my child to come
If you can't come home
Won't you please send me a letter
'Cause a letter, Lord, would mean so much to me
You know my child may be somewhere
On his sick bed
With no one, no one there to rub his head (Lord, Lord)
Then my child may be somewhere
In some lonely jail
With no one, no one there to go his bail, Lord
I am waiting, waiting for my child to come
I'm waiting and I'm watching, Lord, for my child to come
If you can't come home
Oh, won't you please send me a letter
'Cause a letter, Lord, would mean so much to me (Lord, Lord)
I am waiting, I'm waiting for my child to come
I'm waiting and I'm watching for my child to come
If you can't come home
Won't you please send me a letter
'Cause a letter, Lord, would mean so much to me (yes, it would)
You know a letter, Lord, would mean so much to me
I said a letter, woah, would mean so much to me
I'm waiting
Waiting for my child to come home
So many mothers, so many fathers
Are waiting for their children to come home
