PRODIGAL SON

THE ROLLING STONES

Lyrics and music:Bob Lee Wilkins

Key:

Well a poor boy took his father's bread and started down the road

Started down the road

To ok all he had and s tarted down the road

Go ing out in this wo rld, where God onl y knows

And th at'll be the w ay to g et al ong

Well poor boy spent all he had, famine come in the land

Famine come in the land

Sp ent all he had and f amine come in the land

Sa id, "I believe I'll go and hire me to s ome man"

And th at'll be the w ay I'll get a long

Well, man said, "I'll give you a job for to feed my swine

For to feed my swine

I' ll give you a job f or to feed my s wine"

Bo y stood there and h ung his head and cried

Cause that is no way to g et al ong

Said, "I believe I'll ride, believe I'll go back home

Believe I'll go back home

Be lieve I'll ride, believe I'll go ba ck home

Or down the road as far as I can go"

And th at'll be the way to get a long

Well, father said, "See my son coming after me

Coming home to me"

Fa ther ran and fell d own on his kn ees

Sa id, "Sing and praise, Lo rd have mercy o n me"
