On the Banks of the Wabash lyrics
On the Banks of the Wabash lyrics, sung by Al Jolson in The Jolson Story, written and composed by Paul Dresser
‘Round my Indiana homesteads wave the cornfields,
In the distance loom the woodlands clear and cool.
Oftentimes my thoughts revert to scenes of childhood,
Where I first received my lessons, nature’s school.
But one thing there is missing in the picture,
Without her face it seems so incomplete.
I long to see my mother in the doorway,
As she stood there years ago, her boy to greet.
