Hank Williams - The Garden Spot Programs, 1950

I've Just Told Mama Goodbye (Show 4)

Each year on Mother's day
The rose I wore was red
But today, I'm saying my first prayer
Mama's lying on her dying bed

I've just told mama goodbye
Mother's day has turned to night
Like the flowers in May, she withered away
And my red rose is turning white

This is the dreaded hour
That we all must face some day
Yet there's consolation in my heart
She will bloom in the master's bouquet

I've just told mama goodbye
Mother's day has turned to night
Like the flowers in May, she withered away
And my red rose is turning white

Her time has come to go
And there's nothing I can do
Only hold her hand and say goodbye
Mama's day with her children is through
