What A Memory Tracy Lawrence

On the day mama died,she called daddy to her side.And said,"i'll be goin soon
,I know its gonna hurt you both. But, promise me before i go, you'll do what I
Ask of you
In a big red folgers can, hid behind the pots and pans you'll find some money
That i've saved
And in the back of my dresser drawer I put away a little more for a rainy day
Go to town and buy that new guitar cause hes been workin awful hard to get his
Own
To write his songs

What a memory,oh what a memory even in her final moments mom thought of me
What a memory

She was only 35 i was 15 askin why? The lord took her away he must known we
Needed her
She was an angel here on earth i still miss her everyday.with all her friends
And half the town
And her family gathered round i bet she never felt so loved when everybodys
Heads were bowed i did
Best to make her proud as i stood up and i sang rock of ages cleft for me as i
Played it on that new six string
I couldn't help but cry as we said goodbye
Reapeat chorus
Even in her final moments mama thought of me
What a memory, What a memory
