Out in the cold world and far away from home Some mother's boy is wandering all alone No one to guide him or keep his footsteps right Some mother's boy is homeless tonight Oh, bring back to me, my wandering boy For there is no other that's left to give me joy Tell him his mother with faded cheeks and hair Is at the old home, awaiting him there Out in the hallway there stands a vacant chair Had an old pair of shoes he used to wear Empty now the cradle, he used to love so well Oh, how I love him, no tongue can tell Oh, bring back to me, my wandering boy For there is no other that's left to give me joy Tell him his mother with faded cheeks and hair Is at the old home, awaiting him there Well, I remember the parting words he said "We'll meet again where tears are never shed No separation [Incomprehensible] When life is over, I'll meet you up there Oh, bring back to me, my wandering boy For there is no other that's left to give me joy Tell him his mother with faded cheeks and hair Is at the old home, awaiting him there
