I'VE JUST TOLD MAMA GOODBYE Recorded by Hank Williams, Sr. Words and music by Curley Kinsey and Sunshine Slim Sweet
[D] Each year on [A7] Mother's [D] day The rose I [G] wore was [D] red But [G] today I'm saying [D] my first prayer Mama's lying on her [A7] dying [D] bed.
[D] I've just told [A7] Mama good-[D] bye Mother's day has [G] turned to [D] night Like the [G] flowers in May, she [D] withered away And my red rose is [A7] turning [D] white.
This is the dreaded hour We all must face someday Yet there's consolation in my heart She will bloom in the Master's bouquet.
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.
I've just told Mama goodbye And knelt beside her bed I heard her say, "I'll meet you someday, Where the white roses turn to red."
