Grateful Dead - Sing me back home

The warden led the prisoner down the hallway to his doom I stood up to say goodbye like all the rest And I heard him tell the warden just before they reached my cell Let my guitar playin friend fill my request Let him sing me back home a song I used to hear. Make my old memories come alive.Sing me away and turn back the year. Sing me home before I die.I recall last Sunday morning when the choir from off the street Came in to sing a few old gospel songs And I heard him tell the singers theres a song my mother sang Can I hear it before you travel on.Sing me back home a song I used to hear. Make my old memories come alive.Sing me away and turn back the year. Sing me back home before I die.
