Mama Sang A Song - Bill Anderson (比尔·安德森)[00:00:00]

Written by：Bill Anderson[00:00:00]

God put a song in the heart of an angel[00:00:00]

And softly she sang it to me[00:00:10]

I get to thinking lots of times[00:00:22]

About back when I was a lad[00:00:24]

Of the old homeplace where I grew up[00:00:26]

Of the days both good and bad[00:00:29]

My overalls were hand-me-downs[00:00:32]

My shoes were full of holes[00:00:36]

I used to walk four miles to school every day[00:00:39]

Through the rain the sleet and the cold[00:00:42]

I've seen the nights[00:00:46]

When my daddy would cry[00:00:47]

For the things that his family would need[00:00:48]

But all he ever got was a badland farm[00:00:52]

And seven hungry mouths to feed[00:00:56]

And yet and yet our homefire[00:01:00]

Never flickered once[00:01:03]

'Cause when all these things went wrong[00:01:05]

Mama took the hymn book down[00:01:09]

And mama sang a song[00:01:11]

What a friend we have in Jesus[00:01:13]

I've been rocked to sleep many a night[00:01:24]

To the tune of What a Friend[00:01:26]

And come morning Rock of Ages[00:01:28]

Would wake me gently once again[00:01:30]

And when daddy would reach up[00:01:33]

And he'd take the Bible down[00:01:34]

And he'd read it[00:01:36]

Read it loud and long[00:01:37]

And I always felt that maybe our house was blessed[00:01:39]

When daddy would say mama sing a song[00:01:43]

Sister left home first I guess and then Bob[00:01:48]

And then Tommy and then Dan[00:01:52]

By then dad's hair was turning white[00:01:55]

And I had to be my mama's little man[00:01:58]

But it seemed that as daddy's back grew weak[00:02:01]

My mother's faith just grew strong[00:02:04]

And those were the greatest days of all[00:02:08]

When mama sang a song[00:02:11]

Rock of ages cleft for me[00:02:14]

Let me hide myself in Thee[00:02:24]

Do do do[00:02:34]

I guess the house is still standing[00:02:36]

I don't get to go back much anymore[00:02:38]

No voice is left to fill those halls[00:02:41]

And no steps to grace the floor[00:02:45]

For you see my mother sings in heaven now[00:02:48]

Around God's golden throne[00:02:53]

But I'll always believe[00:02:56]

That this world is a better place[00:02:57]

Because one time my mama sang a song[00:03:01]

Precious memries flod my soul[00:03:09]
