Mama's Song

She'd wake us up early

Every mornin'

She'd help us say our prayers

Every night

She was always there to help us

Through the hard times

We could count on her

To make everything alrightI remember swingin' on the front porch

Papa said, there's somethin

I need to say tonight

Mama's been sick for a long time

Let's pray to God

She can make it through the night[Chorus]

"Mama don't wanna say goodbye"

She said

"Wipe those tears from your eyes"

"Mama, I don't wanna say goodbye"

It was written in the heavens

And the skies above

"Son, I gave you birth

Showed you all my love"

"I can't think of this life without you

It's hard to try

Mama, I'm afraid to say goodbye""Now kids

I've been hangin' on a long time

I hate to leave this world

Before you're grown

Remember everything

That I've taught you

Remember all the good times

When I'm gone"[Chorus]She whispered in my ear

Before she passed away

"Son, it's time to be a man

Ain't nothin' left to say

Jesus walked on water, I know it's true

When it comes time, he'll call you home

I hope you're ready too"[Chorus]
