Bill Anderson - Mama's face songtekst
Je score:
My mama loved my dad for fifty years She worked along beside him in the fields He never gave her much but he gave her all he had Dad's the only reason my mama lived. Mama's face would light up like a diamond Each time my daddy just walked in the room She'd stop what she was doing and put her arms around him Dad's the only world my mama knew. Mama never saw her roses bloom That year the angels came before the robin's song Mama said, ''She didn't mind goin' on ahead ''But heaven won't be heaven till dad is home.'' When mama left she left dad a lonely man But he talked to mama like she was still here Oh, he'd talk about the hard times And the good times that they'd had. As his old mind slipped back across the years Daddy never plowed his fields again He just sat down to wait his time to come And then one day he said, ''I think I hear a choir sing.'' And he closed his eyes and went to live with mom Lord, I want to thank you for the years That they were here for me to love Though it's hard to let 'em go. Lord You know I'd let 'em go again. If I could have just been there And seen my mama's face When my dad walked in. If I could have only seen my mama's face When my daddy walked in...
