supper time

supper time

i should set the table

'cause it's supper time

somehow i'm not able

'cause that man of mine

ain't coming home no more

oh

supper time

kids will soon be yelling

for this supper time

while i keep from telling

that that man of mine

ain't coming home no more

while i keep explaining

when they ask me where he's gone

while i keep from crying

when i bring the supper on

how can i remind them

to pray at their humble board

how can i be thankful

when they start to thank the lord

oh

lord!

supper time

i should set the table

'cause it's supper time

somehow i'm not able

'cause that man of mine

ain't coming home no more

ain't coming home no more.
