Take Me Back - Dolly Parton

作词：Dolly Parton

作曲：Dolly Parton

Take me back all precious memories

to the days forever gone

I can still remember mama

washing on the washboard

On the backporch while us kids played in the yard

Mama always seemed to be so happy and content

She never seemed to mind that times were hard

She went about her work singing

some old favorite songs of hers

And often singing favorite songs for us

She was satisfied just being mama to us children

And the only woman daddy ever loved

Take me back

Take me back to mama's bosom back to daddy's

Back to daddy's loving arms

Take me back all precious memories

to the days forever gone

I can still remember us a running to meet daddy

In the evening when his working day was done

When daddy saw us coming

he would bend his tired old back

Holding out his arms and into them we'd run

He'd hold us for a minute

we'd all walk home together

While mama waited for him at the door

And he was satisfied

just being daddy to us children

And the man my mama lived the whole life for

Take me back

Take me back to mama's bosom back to daddy's

Back to daddy's loving arms

Take me back all precious memories

to the days forever gone

Take me back

Take me back all precious memories

precious memories

to the days

To the days forever gone
