The snow falls'round my window
But it can't chill my heart
God knows it died the day you left
When my dream world fell apart.

Chorus:
Got the weary blues from waitin'
Lord I've been waitin' so long
These blues have got me cryin'
Sweet mama won't you please come home

Through tears I watch young lovers as
they go strolling by.
For all those things that might have been
Lord, forgive me if I cry.

Got the weary blues from waitin'
Lord I've been waitin' so long
These blues have got me cryin'
Sweet mama won't you please come home
