She'd wake us up every mornin' She'd help us say our every night She was always to help us through the hard times We could count on her to everything alright
I remember swingin' on the porch Papa said, "There's I need to say tonight Mama's sick for a long time pray to God she can make it through tonight"
Mama, wanna say goodbye She said those tears from your eyes Mama, I wanna say goodbye It was written in the Heavens and the above Son I gave you birth, you all my love I can't think of this life without you, hard to try Oh, mama, I'm to say goodbye
"Now I've been hangin' on a long time I hate to this world before you're grown Remember that I taught you Remember all the good when I'm gone
Oh, mama, wanna say goodbye She said "Wipe those tears your eyes" Mama, I don't wanna say It was in the Heavens and the skies above "Son I gave you birth, you all my love" I can't of this life without you but it's hard to try Oh, mama, I'm afraid to say
She in my ear before she passed away "Son it's time to be a man nothin' left to say Jesus walked on water, I know it's When it comes he'll call you home, I hope you're ready too"
don't wanna say goodbye Wipe those from your eyes Mama, I don't say goodbye Written in the and the skies above Gave you birth, showed you all my Can't think of this life you but it's hard to try Oh, mama, I'm to say goodbye, oh, mama
Oh, mama, I don't say goodbye, oh
