Where is my wandering boy tonight
Where is my wandering boy tonight The boy of my tenderest care The boy that was once my joy and light The child of my love and prayer Where is my boy tonight Where is my boy tonight My heart o'erflows, for I love him, he knows O where is my boy tonight Once he was pure as morning dew As he knelt at his mother's knee No face was so bright, no heart more true And none was so sweet as he * Refrain O chould I see you now my boy As fair as in olden time When prattle and smile made home a joy And life was a merry chime * Refrain Go for my wand'ring boy tonight Go search for him where you will But bring him to me with all his blight And tell him I love him still * Refrain
