No One To Welcome Me Home

I went to the old home where I once used to roam
And all of my friends had ev'ryone gone
How sad and how drear no voice did I hear
There was no one to welcome me home

No one to welcome me home
Oh! no, no one to welcome me home
How sad and how drear no voice could I hear

There was no one to welcome me home

I went to the old school where I once loved to play
And all of my playmates had every one gone
So lonesome and drear no voice did I hear
There was no one to welcome me home

No one to welcome me home
There was one to welcome me home
But, when I behold that mansion of gold
There'll be someone to welcome me home
