The Gospel Quilt Song

歌詞

Goodbye mama, goodbye to you too, paw Little sister, you'll have to wait a while to come along Goodbye to this house and all its memories We all just got to old so say we're wrong I've got to make one last trip to my bedroom I guess I'll have to leave some stuff behind Funny how the same old crooked pictures Just don't look the same to me tonight Ain't no use in sheddin' no more tears, ma Ain't no use in shoutin' at me, paw I can't live no longer with your fears, ma I love you but that hadn't helped at all All of us has got to do what matters And each of us must see what we can see Though it was long ago you must remember That you were once as young and scared as me Mama, I don't know how hard it is yet When you realized you're growin' old I know how hard it is now to be younger I know you tried to keep me from the cold Thanks for all you've done it may sound hollow But thank you for them good times that we've known But I must have my own road to follow You will all be welcomed in my home I have got my suitcase I must go now I don't mind about them things you said Sorry mom, I just don't know where I'm goin' Remember little sister look ahead Tomorrow I'll be in some other sunrise And maybe I'll have someone by my side Mama, give your love back to your husband Father, you have taught me well goodbye Goodbye mama, goodbye to you too, paw
