Mother Was a Lady (Remaster) - Jimmie Rodgers[00:00:00]

Written by：Joseph Stern[00:00:00]

Two drummers they were seated in a grand hotel one day[00:00:06]

While dining they were chatting in a joking of sort way[00:00:15]

There came a pretty waitress to bring the tray of food[00:00:23]

They spoke to her familiarly in a manner sort of rude[00:00:32]

At first she did not notice nor make the least reply[00:00:40]

But one remind was made to her[00:00:48]

Brought teardrops to her eyes[00:00:53]

She turned on her tormentors her cheeks were flaming red[00:01:03]

Approaching as a picture these is the words she said[00:01:11]

My mother was a lady and yours I would allow[00:01:19]

And you may have a sister who needs protection now[00:01:28]

I've come to this great city to find my brother dear[00:01:36]

You would not dare insult me sir if brother jack were here[00:01:45]

The two sat there in silence[00:01:54]

Their heads hung low in shame[00:01:58]

For give me miss we meant no harm[00:02:02]

Pray tell me what is your name[00:02:06]

She told him and he cried aloud I know your brother too[00:02:11]

We've been friends for many[00:02:19]

Many years and he oft times speaks of you[00:02:22]

Come go with me when I go back[00:02:28]

And if you'll only wed[00:02:32]

I'll take you to him as my bride[00:02:36]

For I've loved you since you said[00:02:40]

My mother was a lady and yours I would allow[00:02:44]

And you may have a sister who needs protection now[00:02:53]

I've come to this great city to find my brother dear[00:03:01]

You would not dare insult me sir[00:03:10]

If brother jack were here[00:03:14]
