Lyrics Old Mission Road - Archie Roach
Oh,
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?
Oh,
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?
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?
