Mama's Roses
Mama never had a bed of roses
'Cause cotton grew right up to her front door
And a share-cropper's dreams don't mean nothin'
When the man who owns the land just keeps you poor.
Sometimes we would go to town on Saturday
Flowers grew upon the courthouse square
And mama picked a big bed red rose so tenderly
And gently weaved it through her long black hair
As years went by us kids were gettin' older
Sharecropper's dreams went by the way
And I saw my mama's hands grow old and wrinkled
Hoping there might be a better day.

Mama passed away in late December,
And we all took some money we had saved
And bought a big bouquet of long stemmed roses,
And placed them at the head of mama's grave.
Music Interlude
Now lookin' at those hard times there's one thing I know,
That mama's up in heaven where roses always grow.
Yeah mama's up in heaven where roses always grow.
