Текст (слова) песни: C.W. Mccall - Roses For Mama

(Johnny Wilson, Gene Dobbins, Wayne Sharpe)

[Spoken]

Well, I had two weeks vacation comin`, so I thought I`d drive down to Florida: spend some time with an old friend, date a few girls, make a few parties, and just kinda live it up again.

So I packed up my car, and then I called my Mom in Tennesee, and told her what I planned to do. She said, "Son, are you comin` by?" And I said, "Mom, I`m really pushed for time, but I`ll see you in a week or two."

And I was drivin` through this little town in Georgia when I remembered: today`s Mama`s birthday. Well, I thought I`ll just stop and wire some flowers. Shouldn`t take too long; then I`ll be on my way.

So I walked in a flower shop and the first thing I saw was this little boy, with his eyes full a` tears. I said, "What`s wrong, son?" He said, "Mama loves roses. And today`s her birthday, and I haven`t seen her in almost a year."

[Chorus]
Roses for Mama
Today`s her birthday
Roses for Mama
Today`s her birthday

He said, "I live with Grandma now. But I promised Mama some roses, `cause I talk to her all the time. I wanted to give her five, `cause that`s how old I am. But the lady said I couldn`t buy `em with just a dime."

Well, the little fella`s story kind a` touched my heart, so I told the lady to give him what he wanted and charge it to me. Then I told her I needed to wire a dozen roses to my Mama, up in Chapel Hill, Tennessee.

I looked around, and the little boy was gone. But all of a sudden the door flew open and he come runnin` back in and he said, "Mister, I forgot to thank you for the roses." He smiled, he shook my hand, and ran back out again.

Well, I started on out of town. And I was feelin` real proud of myself for thinkin` of my Mama and really carin`, when I looked out the window and I saw that same little boy, kneelin`, by a grave in an old cemetery.

I stopped my car and walked over to where the little boy was kneelin` down. And he smiled up at me and said, "This is where my Mama stays. She says she sure does thank you for these pretty roses." Well that`s when I had to walk away.

And I drove straight back to that flower shop and I said, "Lady, have you sent those flowers to Tennessee?" She said, "No, not yet." I said, "Well, nevermind. I`ll just take them back with me."

[Chorus]
Roses for Mama
Today`s her birthday
Roses for Mama
Today`s her birthday
