COME BACK FOR ME written by Michelle Campagne
I married young I married really young He had land My father had four sons
Then a missionary came to their door one day And lured them all away To Canada I didn't cry as I watched them sail away
And I will wait By the river Until they come back for me Until they come back for me
Words on paper Cross the sea They don't do much To comfort me
Hundreds caught the fever on the way And Henri died, did their missionary pray? I cried oceans that day, an ocean away Ten cents an acre and a life to pay
And I will wait By the river Until they come back for me Until they come back for me
