Mama Sang a Song - The Hit Crew (热歌组合)[00:00:00]

God put a song in the heart of an angel[00:00:01]

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

I get to thinking lots of times[00:00:21]

About back when I was a lad[00:00:22]

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

Of the days both good and bad [00:00:28]

My overalls were hand-me-downs[00:00:31]

My shoes were full of holes[00:00:34]

I used to walk four miles to school every day[00:00:36]

Through the rain the sleet and the cold [00:00:40]

I've seen the nights[00:00:43]

When my daddy would cry[00:00:45]

For the things that his family would need[00:00:46]

But all he ever got was a badland farm[00:00:50]

And seven hungry mouths to feed[00:00:54]

And yet and yet our homefire[00:00:57]

Never flickered once[00:01:01]

Cause when all these things went wrong[00:01:03]

Mama took the hymn book down[00:01:06]

And mama sang a song [00:01:09]

What a friend we have in Jesus [00:01:11]

I've been rocked to sleep many a night[00:01:20]

To the tune of What a Friend[00:01:22]

And come morning Rock of Ages[00:01:24]

Would wake me gently once again [00:01:27]

And when daddy would reach up[00:01:29]

And he'd take the Bible down[00:01:30]

And he'd read it[00:01:32]

Read it loud and long [00:01:34]

And I always felt that maybe our house was blessed[00:01:36]

When daddy would say mama sing a song [00:01:40]

Sister left home first I guess and then Bob[00:01:45]

And then Tommy and then Dan[00:01:48]

By then dad's hair was turning white[00:01:52]

And I had to be mama's little man [00:01:55]

But it seemed that as daddy's back grew weak[00:01:58]

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

And those were the greatest days of all[00:02:05]

When mama sang a song [00:02:08]

Rock of ages cleft for me[00:02:11]

Let me hide myself in Thee[00:02:22]

I guess the house is still standing[00:02:34]

I don't get to go back much anymore[00:02:37]

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[00:02:57]

That this world is a better place[00:02:59]

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

Precious memries flod my soul[00:03:11]
