When I'm Called Home Lyrics - You Gotta Pay The Band - Abbey Lincoln

When I'm called home 

I will bring a book 

That tells of strange and funny turns 

And of the heart it took 

To keep on living in a world 

That never was my own 

A world of haunted memories 

Of other worlds unknown. 

I'll tell them of the trouble here 

When they call me home. When I'm called home 

I will sing a song 

And tell them of a beggar's life 

Where everything goes wrong 

Where everybody's hopes and dreams 

Are shattering by the wind. 

I'll tell them of a ghosty world 

Of us and they and him. 

I'll tell them how the shadows fall 

When they call me home. When I'm called home 

I will tell the stars 

Of the battles that were lost 

In a world of wars. 

I will tell the rivers 

Of the children lost at sea 

Of ahow a soul ist bartered 

And what it costs a spirit free. 

Hallelujah tell a story, oh, When they call me home.
