Whisper You Mother's Name - Jimmie Rodgers[00:00:00]
I was seated one day in a gilded cafe [00:00:11]
In a windows that looked on the street;[00:00:16]
A face caught my eye in a crowd passing by [00:00:22]
And I hastily sprang to my feet [00:00:27]
It was my sister's sad face I had left home to trace;[00:00:32]
Thru her pride she had left us one day [00:00:38]
And it brought back to me as plain as could be[00:00:43]
My mother as I heard her say:[00:00:48]
If you should see your sister [00:00:54]
Do not reproach or blame [00:00:59]
Tell her how we've missed her [00:01:05]
I love her just the same;[00:01:09]
Say my darling the words that you brought her [00:01:14]
Whether in pride or shame [00:01:20]
Say that she's still my daughter [00:01:25]
Whisper your mother's name [00:01:30]
There were tears on her face as she passed by the place [00:01:47]
And I hastily sprang to her side[00:01:52]
As we walked along I said Nell we were wrong [00:01:57]
We are sorry we wounded your pride [00:02:02]
Your sweetheart is true and still waiting for you [00:02:08]
We are willing now you should wed if you'll only come back [00:02:13]
You can marry your Jack and please your dear mother who said:[00:02:20]
If you should see your sister do not reproach or blame [00:02:28]
Tell her how we've missed her[00:02:39]
I love her just the same[00:02:44]
Say my darling the words that you brought her [00:02:49]
Whether in pride or shame [00:02:55]
Say that she's still my daughter [00:03:00]
Whisper your mother's name[00:03:05]
