Edit By: 216.73.216.51

(e. king, j.& d. van zant, gary rossington)

Shed wake us up early every mornin
Shed help us say our prayers every night
She was always there to help us through the hard times
We could count on her to make everything alright

I remember swingin on the front porch
Papa said theres somethin I need to say tonight
Mamas been sick for a long time
Lets pray to God she can make it through the night

(chorus)
Mama dont wanna say goodbye
She said wipe those tears from your eyes
Mama I dont wanna say goodbye
It was written in the heavens and the skies above
Son I gave you birth showed you all my love
I cant think of this life without you its hard to try
Mama Im afraid to say goodbye

Now kids Ive been hangin on a long time
I hate to leave this world before your grown
Remember everything that Ive taught you
Remember all the good times when Im gone

(repeat chorus)

She whispered in my ear before she passed away
Son its time to be a man aint nothin left to say
Jesus walked on water I know its true
When it comes time hell call you home
I hope your ready too

(repeat chorus)
