Take My Mother Home

Take My Mother Home - Harry Belafonte

Written by：Hall Johnson

I think I heard him say

When he was struggling up the hill

I think I heard him say

Take my mother home

Then I'll die easy

Take my mother home

And I'll die easy take my mother home

I think I heard him say

When they was raffling off this clothes

I think I heard him say

Take my mother home

And I'll die easy take my mother home

I'll die so easy take my mother home

I think I heard him cry

When they was nailing in the nail

I think I heard him cry

Take my mother home

I'll die this death on calvary

Ain't gonna die no more

I'll die on calvary

Ain't gonna die no more

Ain't gonna die no more

I think I heard him say

When he was giving up the ghost

I think I heard him say

Please take my mother home

Please take my mother home
