Charley Pride - Mama Don't Cry For Me Lyrics
I've seen the big fish jumpin', mama, I've heard crickets singAnd I've felt my heart start poundin' at the site of New OrleansI've seen old New York City with her lights aglowI've been a lot of places, always on the goI've seen most everything I care to seeSo mama when I'm gone don't cry for meI've held a new born baby, mama, in my ar-arms so tightAnd I've felt the warm love, mama, of a woman in the nightI've seen the desert flowers, mama, where-ere they growI've climbed the highest mountains covered with snowI've seen most everything I care to seeSo mama when I'm gone don't cry for meI'm sending you this message, mama, I must say-ay goodbyeI lived the life you gave me, mama, I'm not afraid to dieEven though I'm dyin', mama, my hands of death are strongI don't want you cryin' mama, after I'm goneI've seen all of this old world I care to seeSo mama when I'm gone don't cry for meSo mama when I'm gone don't cry for me
