Supper Time Songtext
von Eileen Farrell

Suppertime
I should set the table
′Cause it's suppertime
Somehow, I′m not able
'Cause that man of mine
Ain't comin′ home no more

Suppertime
Kids′ll soon be yellin'
For their suppertime
How′ll I keep from tellin'
That, that man of mine
Ain′t comin' home no more?


How′ll I keep explainin'
When they ask me where he is gone?
How'll I keep from cryin′
When I bring their supper on?
How can I remind them
To pray at their humble board?
How can I be thankful
When they start to thank the Lord, Lord?

Suppertime
I should set the table
′Cause it's suppertime
Somehow, I ain′t able
'Cause that man of mine
Ain′t comin' home no more

Ain′t comin' home no more
