Lamplighting Time In The Valley
D G D
There's a lamp shining bright in a cabin
A
In a window it's shinin' for me
D G D
And I know that my mother is praying
A D
For the boy she is longing to see
G D
When it's lamplighting time I can see her
A
As she rocks in her chair to and fro
D G D
But I know that I'll never more see her
A D
'Cause she's gone to a good place I know
Oh, she lights up her lamp and sits waiting
For she knows not the crime that I've done
But I'll change all my ways and I'll meet her
Up in Heaven when life's race is run
G D
When it's lamplighting time in the valley
A
And in dreams I go back to my home
D G D
I can see that old lamp in the window
A D
It will guide me where ever I roam
