I wonder how the old folks are at home; I wonder if they miss me while I roam;

I wonder if they pray for the boy that went away And left his kind old parents all alone,

I hear the cattle lowing in the lane, And see again those fields of golden grain;

I almost hear them sigh as they bade their boy goodbye; I wonder how the old folks are at home.
