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 will I keep from telling
That man of mine
Ain't coming home no more
How will I keep explaining
When they ask me where he's gone
How will I keep from crying
When I bring the supper on
How can I remind them?
To pray at their humble board
How can I be thankful
When they start to thank the Lord
Lord, oh
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
Mmmm, ain't coming home no more
