Red Carpet
Every night before bed, she'd cradle my head
And bend by my bedside to pray
I'd say mama you know I can't sleep on my own
Won't you please stay
Mama, mama, mama
Don't leave sis and brother behind
Cuz we both know this can't be your time
Mama, mama, mama
How could I know, what had happened at home
It was the first selfish thing that she'd done
She'd always talk about racing to God
It looks like she's won
Mama, mama, mama
Don't leave sis and brother behind
Cuz we both know this can't be your time
Mama, mama, mama
I sure was wishing when I come into the kitchen
She didn't roll out the red carpet for me
Packing to go, from the house that was home
I found what she wants me to see
The letter she wrote, her last parting note
In her diary
Mama, mama, mama
Don't leave sis and brother behind
Cuz we both know this can't be your time
Mama, mama, mama
I sure was wishing when I come into the kitchen
She didn't roll out the red carpet for me
Every year since she left, we all bow our heads
And kneel by her gravestone to pray
And bend by my bedside to pray
I'd say mama you know I can't sleep on my own
Won't you please stay
Mama, mama, mama
Don't leave sis and brother behind
Cuz we both know this can't be your time
Mama, mama, mama
How could I know, what had happened at home
It was the first selfish thing that she'd done
She'd always talk about racing to God
It looks like she's won
Mama, mama, mama
Don't leave sis and brother behind
Cuz we both know this can't be your time
Mama, mama, mama
I sure was wishing when I come into the kitchen
She didn't roll out the red carpet for me
Packing to go, from the house that was home
I found what she wants me to see
The letter she wrote, her last parting note
In her diary
Mama, mama, mama
Don't leave sis and brother behind
Cuz we both know this can't be your time
Mama, mama, mama
I sure was wishing when I come into the kitchen
She didn't roll out the red carpet for me
Every year since she left, we all bow our heads
And kneel by her gravestone to pray
