Valerie Smith - Mama's Roses lyrics



I remember well
That old cabin in the holler
Where in childhood
I used to play

No brass on the door
No rugs on the floor
And love came to visit every day

I remember one springtime
Mama planted a garden
And in the center
She placed a rose

Nothing’s standing today
Time has burnt it away
But, mama’s roses still grow

(Chorus)
My mamas roses
Still grow on the hillside
Where the old homeplace
Used to stand

Their a constant reminder
That mama still lives
With Jesus in that heavenly land

Lord I can remember
That old country graveyard
Where they lay my mama away

The sweet smell over clover
I’ll never get over
The words
The preacher had to say

“now children don’t be grieving
Your mama she ain’t leaving
She’s just taking a well deserved rest

For the grave has no victory
When your sleeping with Jesus
And, your Mama’s enjoying heaven’s best”

(Chorus)

Repeat last line
