Weary blues from waitin’, Lord, I’ve been waitin’ too long
  These blues have got me cryin’, oh sweet Mama, please come home
  
  The snow falls ‘round my window, but it can’t chill my heart
  God knows it died the day you left, my dream world fell apart
  
  Through tears I watched young lovers, as they go strollin’ by
  Oh, all these things that might have been, God forgive me if I cry
