Your Mother Still Prays (For You Jack) - The Carter Family
The night was dark and stormy

The wind was howling wild

As an aged mother gazed upon
A portrait of her child

As she gazed on the baby's features

That once filled her heart with joy

He's now in this wild world roaming

That mother's long-lost boy

Your mother still prays for you Jack

Your mother still prays for you

In a home far over the ocean

Your mother still prays for you

At last there came a letter

It was deeply edged in black

From a comrade long forgotten

Who still remembered Jack

They have lain your dear old mother

In a grave so dark and cold

And she wants her boy who is roaming

To meet her on the streets of gold

Your mother still prays for you Jack

Your mother still prays for you

In a home far over the ocean

Your mother still prays for you

His stony heart was broken

As he thought of his mother dear

And in spite of his comrades' mocking

He could not keep back his tears

In spite of the great temptation

That once filled his heart with tears

So he started for heaven that evening

As sweet love the people did sing

Your mother still prays for you Jack

Your mother still prays for you

In a home far over the ocean

Your mother still prays for you
