Lynyrd Skynyrd

(e. king, j.& d. van zant, gary rossington)
She'd wake us up early every mornin'
She'd help us say our prayers every night
She was always there to help us through the hard times
We could count on her to make everything alright
I remember swingin' on the front porch
Papa said there's somethin' i need to say tonight
Mama's been sick for a long time
Let's pray to god she can make it through the night
(chorus)
Mama don't wanna say goodbye
She said wipe those tears from your eyes
Mama i don't wanna say goodbye
It was written in the heavens and the skies above
Son i gave you birth showed you all my love
