Johnny Cash Album: The Mercury Years Track: Letter From Home
Letter From Home Lyrics
(Routh, Crowley)
I want to thank you for all of the letters That you've been sending to me For it's good to lean on the strength of my fam'ly To help me get through every day
Refrain: Without these letters from home to carry me on My life would fall to pieces Every word that I read brings comfort to me I love my letters from home
And it's good to hear from the woman who raised me Some things in life never changed When I was in trouble, he was always praying And sending her blessings my way, thank you, Ma
Refrain:
And the next time you write, maybe you could send a picture from yourself It would really be another ray of light in this dismal place It'll be great to see your face every day
