Suppertime Lyrics & Chords By Smokey River Boys

Verse Number One:

When I was but a boy in days of childhood....
I used to play till evening shadows come....
Then winding down an old familiar pathway....
I heard my mother call at set of sun....

The Chorus:

The shadows lengthen fast.....

We're goin' home at last.....

Verse Number Two:

One day beside her bedside I was kneeling....
And angel wings were win-no-wing....the air....
She heard the call for Suppertime in heaven....
And now I know she's waiting for me there....

The Chorus:

The shadows lengthen fast.....

We're goin' home at last.....

Verse Number Three:

In visions now I see her standing yonder....
And her familiar voice I hear once more....
The banquet table's ready up in Heaven....
It' suppertime upon the golden shores....

The Chorus:

The shadows lengthen fast.....

We're goin' home at last.....

Tag: (spoken over the out)
Mom, it won't be long now...
We'll have suppertime together...
