My Mother (Take 1) - Hank Snow[00:00:01]
Written by:Hank Snow[00:00:03]
There are friends who'll want you but just for a day[00:00:09]
There are pals you think true but they'll cast you away[00:00:16]
But there's one loving soul boys I'll sure recommend[00:00:22]
Through this old world of sorrow she'll be true till the end[00:00:28]
Mother though her hands are all wrinkled and old[00:00:35]
Mother silver hair that has lost all the gold[00:00:43]
You left her alone went to roam through the years[00:00:51]
But all that you left her were heartaches and tears[00:00:58]
So kiss her old brow whisper softly and true[00:01:04]
Mother you're just an angel but I love you[00:01:11]
On the door of a cottage a wreath sadly hung[00:01:23]
And a hearse stood there awaiting as the choir softly sung[00:01:29]
There were flowers in their beauy and the old parson he prayed[00:01:35]
This was the last tribute as they left for her grave[00:01:42]
She won't meet you tonight son when you crave her caress[00:01:48]
She has reared you to manhood and now you've laid her to rest[00:01:54]
Those flowers in their beauty ah to her they're unknown[00:02:01]
'Cause tonight she's with the angels up around the great throne[00:02:07]
So don't wait that late son to try and repay[00:02:13]
Give those flowers and give those treasures give them today[00:02:19]
Let her know that you love her and the show her that you care[00:02:26]
'Cause she's your mother god love her she's as true as a prayer[00:02:32]
So kiss her old brow whisper softly and true[00:02:38]
Mother you're just an angel but I love you[00:02:45]
