Old Mission Road - Live

I wish I had grown
With my mother back home
'Cause I miss her sweet kisses and her smile
And when I'm alone
I wish I had known my mother for just a while

Won't you walk with me, darling
Just a couple of miles?
Won't you tell me the stories
Of when I was a child?
I'd be so happy
As the stories unfold
Won't you walk with me, darling
Down that old mission road?

Now I wish I'd gone fishing with my father
I'm still missing the touch of his strong, gentle hands
Now I'm gone from the mission
'Cause someone's decision
Kept me away from that man

Won't you walk with me, darling
Just a couple of miles?
Won't you tell me the stories
Of when I was a child?
I'd be so happy
As the stories unfold
Won't you walk with me, darling
Down that old mission road? (Old mission road)
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

So kiss your mother goodnight
Hold your father tight
And keep your family near
Or else one day they might
Slowly fade out of sight
Just reflections in those tears

Won't you walk with me, darling
Just a couple of miles?
Won't you tell me the stories
Of when I was a child?
I'd be so happy
As the stories unfold
Won't you walk with me, darling
Down that old mission road?

Won't you walk with me, darling
Down that old mission road?
