Mama Sang a Song

The Golden Age of Country专辑

  • God put a song in the heart of an angel
    And softly she sang it to me
    I get to thinking lots of times about
    Back when I was a lad
    Of the old home place where I grew up
    Of the days both good and bad
    My overalls were hand-me-downs
    My shoes were full of holes
    I used to walk four miles to school every day
    Through the rain, the sleet and the cold
    I've seen the nights when my daddy would cry
    For the things that his family would need
    But all he ever got was a badland farm
    And seven hungry mouths to feed
    And yet and yet our home fire never flickered once
    'Cause when all these things went wrong
    Mama took the hymn book down
    And Mama sang a song
    (What a friend we have in Jesus)
    I've been rocked to sleep many a night
    To the tune of, 'What a friend'
    And come morning 'Rock of ages'
    Would wake me gently once again
    And when Daddy would reach up
    And he'd take the Bible down
    And he'd read it, read it loud and long
    And I always felt that maybe our house was blessed
    When Daddy would say Mama sing a song
    Sister left home first, I guess and then Bob
    And then Tommy and then Dan
    By then Dad's hair was turning white
    And I had to be Mama's little man
    But it seemed that as Daddy's back grew weak
    My mother's faith just grew strong
    And those were the greatest days
    Of all when Mama sang a song
    (Rock of ages cleft for me let me hide myself in Thee)
    I guess the house is still standing
    I don't get to go back much anymore
    No voice is left to fill those halls
    And no steps to grace the floor
    For you see my mother sings in Heaven
    Now around God's golden throne
    But I'll always believe
    That this world is a better place
    Because one time my mama sang a song
    (Precious memories flood my soul)
