Mel Tillis

Mel Tillis - Cover Mama's Flowers lyrics

rate me

It's been many years now since mom passed away

But there's lots of sweet mem'ries that I have today

And when I see autumn and leaves turning brown

I feel like mama is somewhere around

Don't forget to cover my flowers I still hear my sweet mother say

Be sure to cover my flowers or my flowers will wither away

Yes I remember though it's been so long

My heart feels so heavy and life seems so wrong

I'd give all my treasures and things I might own

To go back to mama's old country home

Don't forget to cover...

[ fiddle - steel ]

As I wait in this jungle in this foreign land of people so indifferent to God and to men

It's kill or be killed and I wonder today

If the ones that I'm fighting thinks of mama this way

Don't forget to cover...

Be sure to cover my flowers or my flowers will wither away
