O, when shadows fall
 and trees whisper day is ending
 My thoughts are even when they home
 O when crickets call
 my heart is forever yearning
 Someday to be returning home

 When the hills conceal the setting sun
 Stars begin a-peepin, one by one
 Night covers all and no fortune may for sale
 My dreams will ever take for home
 Night covers all and no fortune may for sale
 My dreams will ever take for home
