I've just been to heaven with someone so true
I dreamed about Mama last night
She read me the Bible as she used to do
I dreamed about Mama last night
She never closed her eyes to sleep
Till we were all in bed
And on party nights till we came home
She always sat and read
We had little thought about it then
For we were young and gay
Just how much Mama worried
When we children were away
We only knew she never slept
While we were out at night
That she waited just to know
That we'd all come home alright
And sometimes when we'd stay away
Till 1 or 2 or 3
It seemed to us that Mama heard
The turning of the key
For always when we'd step inside
She'd call and we'd reply
We were all too young back then
To understand the reason why
