Take Me Back Lyrics - Dolly Parton

(Dolly Parton) 

Take me back, oh precious memories 

To the days forever gone 

I can still remember Mama washing on a rub board 

On the back porch, while us kids played in the yard 

Mama always seemed to be so happy and content 

She never seemed to mind that times were hard 

She went about her work singin' some old favorite song of hers 

And often singin' favorite songs for us 

And she was satisfied just bein' Mama to us children 

And the only woman Daddy ever loved

Take me back to Mama's bosom 

Back to Daddy's lovin' arms 

Take me back, oh precious memories 

To the days forever gone 

I can still remember us a runnin' to meet Daddy 

In the evening when his working day was done 

When Daddy saw us comin' he would bend his tired old back 

Holdin' out his arms, and into them we'd run 

And he'd hold us for a minute, we'd all walk home together 

While Mama waited for him at the door 

And he was satisfied just bein' Daddy to us children 

And the man my Mama lived her whole life for

Take me back, oh precious memories
