Mother

And i surely still do miss my mother

Doesn't matter how old that i grow

Mother's love will stay with me all through life

No matter where i go

Ever since the lord called

And she left us

Parts of her flow through me

Every day

God has taken her

But no one could ever take

Mother's love away

Mama could be strong but you knew that she loved you

She taught me how to walk and talk and pray

Since she's gone on a heaven

All those memories of those days

And i think of the things that i didn't get a chance to say

And i surely still do miss my mother

Doesn't matter how old that i grow

Mother's love will stay with me all through life

No matter where i go

Ever since the lord called

And she left us

Parts of her flow through me

Every day

God has taken her

But no one could ever take

Mother's love away

Always there the first thing the morning

Making sure that i got up for school

Get yourself ready to go

She said go to class and learn some more

And remember that there's no one in the word better than you

That's why i miss my mother

There ain't no blues that have been written

That could make me feel this way

I lost the one that was there for me all my life

The day the Lord took mama far away
