You lent him all your joy, he done spent it all

O god of love, O song of home
Who touched this body that I do not seem to own

Your baby boy, he grown so tall, got to hang his head

Where are you going? Where have you been?
Heard you cry for home into an old tin can
Well you ain't well-spoke, you just well-read
My baby boy, you grown so tall, got to hang your head
