Merle Haggard song on cigar box guitar - Mike Bingham did a great instrumental on this song and I felt like singing it. Please check out Mike's video.The warden led a prisoner down the hallway to his doomI stood up to say good-bye like all the restAnd 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 a song I used to hearMake my old memories come aliveTake me away and turn back the yearsSing Me Back Home before I dieI recall last Sunday morning a choir from off the streetCame in to sing a few old gospel songsAnd 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 with a song I used to hearMake my old memories come aliveTake me away and turn back the yearsSing Me Back Home before I dieSing Me Back Home before I die
