  • Place that Bible at my feet
    I could hardly understand you
    Boy, just mind that you mind me

    I bet that you've callin' on me boy
    Askin' for answers
    You've been callin' at my door
    You cried for a week

    My son is still in the world
    I don't see your way
    I miss the old days
    I miss the old days

    Son,don't run
    I said I'm tryin' to find some children in this world
    I know the things that you understand

    I bet that you've callin' on me boy
    Askin' for answers
    You've been callin' at my door
    You cried for a week

    My son is askin' the world somewhere
    I pray for him every day
    I know I won't see his face

    All the way from Florida to New Orleans
    I said 'everyone even who helps the least
    When a mother loses his child
    She would do my silly thing
    I know that I can never make it right
    But it's hard to live in failure

    My son is lost in the world somewhere
    I help him every day Writer/s: BENJAMIN RODERICK EVANS
