She Ain't Never Coming Home

She wasn't in her bed that cold, clear morning

Mama cried out, My God your sister's gone

No one knows if she was taken or if she ran off on her own

The only thing we know for certain

Is she ain't never coming home

I recall hearing whispers in the dark

Never thought it bore mention

Just those dreams that make me walk

No one knows if she was take nor if she ran off on her own

The only thing we know for certain

Is she ain't never coming home

The hired hand said he didn't want to get involved in

Our affairs but he swears he's heard a man come calling

No one knows if she was taken or if she ran off on her own

The only thing we know for certain

Is she ain't never coming home

Now and then I think that I can hear her talking

But it's just her specter lingering and haunting

No one knows if she was taken or if she ran off on her own

The only thing we know for certain

Is she ain't never coming home
