(verse 1)
I was born in ’48, that’s when I came to be
Late in December, the world seemed bleak to me
But Mama’s care and a rockin’ chair helped me find the way
And the clouds are gone and winter moved on and spring is on the way.
(chorus)
Life is like spring for me
Always new to me
Something new to see in my life
Dark clouds may come around
But then they roll away
And then once again it feels like spring.
(verse 2)
Now that I am older and my years so far behind
Memories of years gone by still linger in my mind
I think of snow and cold, cold rain that clouded up my life
But the memories of a rockin’ chair and Mama’s lovin’ care
A warm spring rain, a ray of sun, my life is spring again.
(chorus)
