1
The estate is being settled, there was only one thing left
2
My mama's family bible was laying on the chest
3
All the others they didn't want it and that was plain to see
4
So I took mama's bible home with me.
5
One sister got the dishes and one the silver ware
6
And my brother took the radio and her old rocking chair
7
One by one all the pieces of her home was packed and hauled
8
But they left me the best part of it all.
9
Mama's family bible, oh, what a book
10
It inspired me every time I looked
11
At all the scriptures that she marked and loved
12
Mama's family bible is the treasure I'm proud of.
13
(Spoken)
14
Now all the dishes are broken, yes, and someone sold the silver ware
15
And the old radio was sittin' in some junkstore in the square
16
One by one all the pieces of moma's life had all disappeared
17
But mama's family bible is still here.
18
(Sang)
19
Mama's family bible, oh, what a book
20
It inspired me every time I looked
21
At all the scriptures that she marked and loved
22
Mama's family bible is the treasure that I'm proud of.
23
Mama's family bible, oh, what a book...
