JUST A-WEARYING FOR YOU Sung by: Mrs. Mary Belle Young Recorded in Batesville, AR 8/17/61 Click here to listen to the original recording All the time a-feeling blue. Wishing for you, wondering when You’ll be coming home again. Lonely, don’t know what to do, Just a-wearying for you. Morning comes, the birds awake, Used to sing so for your sake, But the sadness in the notes That comes trilling from their throats Seems to feel your absence too (?), Just a-wearying for you. Evening comes, I miss you more When the dark looms ‘round my door. Seems just like you ought to be There to open it for me. Night comes still and fills me through, Sets me wearying for you. |
