《Mama Sang a Song》歌词

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

[00:01:01] Never flickered once

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

[00:02:41] No voice is left to fill those halls

[00:02:45] And no steps to grace the floor

[00:02:48] For you see my mother sings in heaven now

[00:02:53] Around God's golden throne

[00:02:57] But I'll always believe

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

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

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