Dottie wrote another interesting and sensitive lyric. I couldn't resist putting it to music.
Lyrics
She bought a dress, a new pair of shoes
Daddy knows what he’s supposed to do
She made a list of who gets what
But Mama doesn’t have a lot
Mama’s sick, Daddy’s crying
In his heart he knows she’s dying
But there’s nothing he can do
Lord, I wish it wasn’t true
Chorus
Ask……… heaven……… to……… wait…
I know you’re tired and your work is done
But Daddy’s crying and we can’t come. I’m begging you to stay
Mama please don’t go away today
Inst.
She chose Papa’s church to buy her plot
That’s where she goes but she don’t go a lot
Her friend Jean… will fix her hair
And… I know what she wants to wear
Her sister Sarah can’t stop crying
Hold on Daddy I know you’re trying
And I don't know what to do
Or what to say to you
Chorus
Tag
I know it won’t be long
And Mama won’t be co.....ming’ home.
Repeat
