Select language to translate this lyric
Supper time
I should set the table
Cause its supper time
Somehow I'm not able
Cause that man of mine
Ain't comin' home no more
Supper time
Kids will soon be yellin'
For their supper time
How'll I keep from tellin'
Them that man of mine
Ain't comin' home no more?
How'll I keep explainin' when they ask me where hes gone?
How'll I keep from cryin' when I bring their 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
Supper time
I should set the table
Cause its supper time
Somehow I'm not able
Cause that man of mine
Ain't comin' home no more
