Mavis Staples - Oh Happy Day

Waiting for My Child to Come Home

I was talking to a lady
Just a few days ago
And these are the words she said (she said)
If you see my child somewhere as you journey here and there
Tell him i'm waiting (waiting) for my child to come home
I'm waiting and waiting for my child to come
I'm waiting and waiting for my child to come
If you can't come home
could you please send me a letter
'cause a letter would mean so much to me
Oh my child may be somewhere on his sick bed
With no one there to rub his aching head
Oh my child may be somewhere in some lonely jail
With no one there to go his ball
I'm waiting and waiting for my child to come
I'm waiting and waiting for my child to come
If he can't come home
Could he please send me a letter
A letter would mean so much to me
I am waiting, waiting
I am waiting and waiting
I am waiting for my child to come home
