Merle Haggard

Merle Ronald Haggard (born April 6, 1937) is an American country music song writer, singer, guitarist, fiddler and instrumentalist. Along with Buck Owens, Haggard and his band The Strangers helped create the Bakersfield sound, which is characterized by the unique twang of Fender Telecaster and the unique mix with the traditional country steel guitar sound, new vocal harmony styles in which the words are minimal, and a rough edge not heard on the more polished Nashville Sound recordings of the same era. more »

Many years ago in days of childhood 
I used to play till the evening sun would come
Then winding down that old familiar pathway 
I heard my mother call at set of sun
"Come home, come home it's suppertime 
The shadows lengthen fast
Come home, come home it's suppertime 
We're going home at last"

Some of my fondest memories of my childhood 
Are woven around suppertime
When my mother used to call from the backsteps 
Of the old homeplace
She said "come home, son, it's suppertime" 
Oh what I'd give to hear that one more time
But you know time has woven a realization 
Of truth that is even more thrilling
And that's when we get that call from the 
Greatest glory to come home on suppertime
When all of God's children gather around 
The table with the love of himself
And we'll celebrate the greatest suppertime of all
Come home, come home
