Sing Me Back Home Lyrics - Keith Richards

The warden who led a prisoner down the hallway to his doom 

I stood up to say, goodbye like all the rest 

And 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 hear 

Make my old memories come alive 

Oh please, take me away and turn back the years 

Sing me back home before I die 

I remember Sunday morning, a choir from off the streets 

They came in to sing a few old gospel songs 

And I heard him tell the singers, there's a song my mama sang 

Won't you sing it once before I move along? 

Oh, won't you sing me back home? There's a songs I used to hear 

Make my old memories come alive 

Please, take me away and turn back the years 

Sing me back home before I die
