Porter Wayne Wagoner (August 12, 1927 – October 28, 2007) was a popular American country music singer known for his flashy Nudie and Manuel suits and blond pompadour. In 1967, he introduced a then little known Dolly Parton on his long-running television show, and they were a well-known duet throughout the late 1960s and early 1970s. Known as Mr. Grand Ole Opry, Wagoner charted 81 singles from 1954–1983. He was elected to the Country Music Hall of Fame. more »

The warden let the prisoner down the hallway to his doom
And I stood up to say goodbye like all the rest
And I heard him tell the warden just before he reached my cell
Let my guitar playing friend do my request
Let him sing me back home with the song I used to hear

Make my old memories come alive
Then take me away and turn back the years sing me back home before I die
I recall last Sunday morning when a choir from off the street
Came in to sing a few old gospel songs

And I heard him tell the singers there's a song my mama sang
Could I hear it once before you move along
Won't you sing me back home...
Won't you sing me back home before I die
