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

Supper time
Kids will soon be yelling
For their supper time
How I keep from telling
That that man of mine
Ain't coming home no more?

How can I keep from telling
When they ask me where he's gone?
How can I keep from crying
When I bring their supper on?

How can I remind them to pray
At their humble bowl?
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
