I Believe I'll Go Back Home / Lordy, Won't You Help Me

Kathleen Battle


I believe I'll go back home
I believe I'll go back home
I believe I'll go back home
And acknowledge that
That I done wrong

When I was in my Father's house
I was well supplied
I made a mistake in a-doin' well
Now I'm dissatisfied

Lordy, won't you help me?
Lordy, won't you help me?
Lordy, won't you help me in this field?

I believe I'll go back home
I believe I'll go back home
I believe I'll go back home
And acknowledge that
That I done wrong

When I was in my Father's house
I had bread enough to spare
But now I'm sick and a-hungry too
And ashamed to go back there

Lordy, won't you help me?
Lordy, won't you help me?
Lordy, won't you help me in this field?

I believe I'll go back home
Lordy, won't you help me?
I believe I'll go back home
Lordy, won't you help me?
I believe I'll go back home
Lordy, won't you help me in this field?

I believe I'll go back home
Lordy, won't you help me?
I believe I'll go back home
Lordy, won't you help me?
I believe I'll go back home
Lordy, won't you help me in this field?
