You think they'll come to hear that?
[N] Yeah.
Thank you very much.
We'd like to do one for you.
Slow things right down.
Do a song that's going to be coming [D] out on our latest CD, which I think it's going to be April or May.
May 1st, I guess, we're going to have a brand [E] new CD to offer you folks.
We're excited to put these songs out, let people hear them.
We'd like to [A] try one on you tonight, if you don't mind.
[E] It's quite entitled, Mama's Rose.
[E] [B]
[A] [E] [B]
[E] Mama never [B]
had a [A] bed, [E] so I'd move her [B]
right through her [E] front door.
And a [B] sharecropper's dreams don't [A] need a [E] [B] plan to fix you.
[B] [E] Sometimes we [B] would go to town [A] on Saturdays.
[E] Flowers grew [B] up on a [E] courthouse bed.
And Mama Dick, [B] the big red rose, [A] so tenderly.
[E] And gently weaved [B] it through her long [E] white hair.
[B] [E] As years went [B] by, us kids were [A] getting older.
[E] [B] Sharecropper's dreams went [E] by the way.
And I saw my [B] mama's hands grow [A] old and wrinkled.
[E] Hoping there [B] might be a better [E] day.
[A] Past the rain, the [E] rain disappeared.
And we all took so many that [B] we had saved.
[A] And Barney came [E] up and stared at the rose.
And placed it [B] at the head [E] of Mama's grave.
[B]
[A] [E] [B]
[E] [B]
[A] [E]
Now looking [B] at those hard times, [A] there's one thing I know.
[E] Mama lives up in heaven, [B] where roses always [E] bloom.
Yeah, Mama lives up in heaven, where roses always [A] bloom.
