Go On Ahead and Go Home Lyrics by Iris Dement


Iris Dement Lyrics

Go on ahead and go home,
Go on ahead and go home
Boy, you’ve done your best,
Time you took your rest in the sheltering loam
Go on ahead and go home,
Go on ahead and go home
The spirits of the dead will meet you up ahead
You won’t be alone

Go let your mama see you smile,
Go let your mama see you smile
Mama’s gonna wait however long it takes, but it’s sure been awhile
Go let your mama see you smile,
Go let your mama see you smile
She’s standing in the sun sayin’ “Boy, your works been done by a long, long mile.â€

Down where the cotton grows tall, down where the cotton grows tall
Where the bramble rose and blue hydrangea grows beside the old mare’s stall
Down where the cotton grows tall, Down where the cotton grows tall
And a fragrant delta breeze shakes the cypress trees down deep in the Fall

In the deep of the night,
In the deep of the night
By the river so still where sorrows come to heal and wrongs are made right
Down in the deep of the night,
In the deep of the night
On a creaking porch swing, the ancient ones sing “everything is alrightâ€

Go on ahead and go home,
Go on ahead and go home
Boy, you’ve done your best,
Time you took your rest in the sheltering loam
Go on ahead and go home,
Go on ahead and go home
The spirits of the dead will meet you up ahead
You won’t be alone
