Hank Williams - I've Just Told Mama Goodbye download song

Lyrics

Ive just told mama goodbye
Recorded by hank williams, sr.
Words and music by curley kinsey and sunshine slim sweet
each year on mothers day
The rose I wore was red
But today Im saying my first prayer
Mamas lying on her dying bed.
Ive just told mama good- bye
Mothers day has turned to night
Like the flowers in may, she withered away
And my red rose is turning white.
This is the dreaded hour
We all must face someday
Yet there’s consolation in my heart
She will bloom in the masters bouquet.
Her time has come to go And there’s nothing I can do Only hold her hand and say goodbye
Mamas day with her children is through.
Ive just told mama goodbye
And knelt beside her bed
I heard her say, I’ll meet you someday,
Where the white roses turn to red.
