What A Memory Lyrics

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 couldnt help but cry as we said goodbye
reapeat chorus
Even in her final moments mama thought of me
What a memory, What a memory
