Go Home

Cat. #0821 (MFH #233) - As sung by Ollie Gilbert, Mountain View, Arkansas on August 8, 1969

VERSE 1
While drink'in alone in th tavern one day
My eyes I hardly could see
I heard a kind voice ringing so loud an' clear
An' here's what th voice said to me,

CHORUS:
Go home, go home,
And kneel by your bedside an' pray
Go home, go home,
God'll answer your prayers today

VERSE 2
I started across th room to th door
I almost fell on th floor
I'm sure there laughter but I could not hear
For th words that still rang in my ear

VERSE 3
God, sobered my mind and he saved my soul
An' he erased away all of my fear
While back in th tavern I preach of these words
Th words that still rings in my ear

VERSE 4
Th crowd started leaving with heads bowed so low
As th bartender picked up th key
As he locked th door he mummered this words
Was th same words that God spoke to me
