No one to welcome me home.
Oh no, no one to welcome me home.
How sad and how drear, no voice could I hear;
There was no one to welcome me home.
I went to the old school where I once loved to play;
And all of my playmates had everyone gone.
So lonesome and drear, no voice did I hear;
There was no one to welcome me home.
No one to welcome me home.
There was no one to welcome me home.
But when I behold that mansion of gold,
There'll be someone to welcome me home.
