Versuri Roses For Mama
(Johnny Wilson, Gene Dobbins, Wayne Sharpe)
[Spoken]
Well, I had two weeks vacation comin', so I
thought I'd drive down to Florida: spend some time
with an old friend, date a few girls, make a few
parties, and just kinda live it up again.
So I packed up my car, and then I called my Mom
in Tennesee, and told her what I planned to do.
She said, Son, are you comin' by? And I said, Mom,
I'm really pushed for time, but I'll see you in a
week or two.
And I was drivin' through this little town in
Georgia when I remembered: today's Mama's
birthday. Well, I thought I'll just stop and wire
some flowers. Shouldn't take too long; then I'll
be on my way.
So I walked in a flower shop and the first thing
I saw was this little boy, with his eyes full a'
tears. I said, What's wrong, son? He said, Mama
loves roses. And today's her birthday, and I
haven't seen her in almost a year.
[Chorus]
Roses for Mama
Today's her birthday
Roses for Mama
Today's her birthday
He said, I live with Grandma now. But I promised
Mama some roses, 'cause I talk to her all the
time. I wanted to give her five, 'cause that's how
old I am. But the lady said I couldn't buy 'em
with just a dime.
Well, the little fella's story kind a' touched my
heart, so I told the lady to give him what he
wanted and charge it to me. Then I told her I
needed to wire a dozen roses to my Mama, up in
Chapel Hill, Tennessee.
I looked around, and the little boy was gone. But
all of a sudden the door flew open and he come
runnin' back in and he said, Mister, I forgot to
thank you for the roses. He smiled, he shook my
hand, and ran back out again.
Well, I started on out of town. And I was feelin'
real proud of myself for thinkin' of my Mama and
really carin', when I looked out the window and I
saw that same little boy, kneelin', by a grave in
an old cemetery.
I stopped my car and walked over to where the
little boy was kneelin' down. And he smiled up at
me and said, This is where my Mama stays. She says
she sure does thank you for these pretty roses.
Well that's when I had to walk away.
And I drove straight back to that flower shop and
I said, Lady, have you sent those flowers to
Tennessee? She said, No, not yet. I said, Well,
nevermind. I'll just take them back with me.
[Chorus]
Roses for Mama
Today's her birthday
Roses for Mama
Today's her birthday
