Lamp Lighting Time In The Valley

C

There’s a lamp shining bright in a cabin
G7
In a window it’s shining for me
C
F
C
And I know that my mother is praying
G7
C
For the boy she is longing to see
F
C
When it’s lamp lighting time in the valley
G7
And in dreams I go back to my home
C
F
C
I can see that old lamp in the window
G7
C
It will guide me where ever I roam
F
C
When it’s lamp Lighting time I can see her
G7
As she rocks in her chair to and fro
C
F
C
But I know that I’ll never more see her
G7
C
Cause she’s gone to a good place I know
F
C
Oh she lights up her lamp and sits waiting
G7
For she knows not the crime that I’ve done
C
F
C
But I’ll change all my ways and I’ll meet her
G7
C
Up in Heaven when life’s race is run
F
C
When it’s lamp lighting time in the valley
G7
And in dreams I go back to my home
C
F
C
I can see that old lamp in the window
G7
C
It will guide me where ever I roam
