Lyrics
Chorus
Turn to the right, follow the straight road
Turn to the right, for it’s the great road
Mother wants you so why don’t you write?
She keeps a light in the window at night
Like autumn leaves her tears are falling
In ev’ry pray’r for you she’s calling
Start in tonight, make a good fight
And turn to the right
2. If we would only stop and pause
As on thro’ life we roam
To help each little worthy cause
‘Twould send a sad heart home
Could you send back one wayward son
A splendid vict’ry would be won
For after all is said and done
It’s worth the while
Performance
