1
There are friends who will want you but just for a day
2
There are pals you think true but they'll cast you away
3
But there's one precious soul, boys, I'll sure recommend
4
Thru' this old world of sorrow she'll be true to till the end
5
Mother, though her hands are all wrinkled and old
6
Mother, silver hair that has lost all its gold
7
You left her alone, went to roam thru' the years
8
But all that you left her was heartaches and tears
9
So, kiss her old brow whisper softly and true
10
Mother, you're just an angel and I love you
11
On the door of a cottage a wreath sadly hung
12
And a hearse stood there waiting as the choir softly sung
13
There were flowers in their beauty and the old parson prayed
14
This was the last tribute as they left for her grave
15
Mother, though her hands are all wrinkled and old
16
Mother, silver hair that has lost all its gold
17
You left her alone, went to roam thru' the years
18
But all that you left her was heartaches and tears
19
So, kiss her old brow whisper softly and true
20
Mother, you're just an angel and I love you
21
She won't meet you tonight, son, when you crave her caress
22
She has reared you to manhood and now you've laid her to rest
23
Those flowers in their beauty, ah, to her their unknown
24
â€~â€~Cause tonight she's with the angels up around the bright throne
25
Mother, though her hands are all wrinkled and old
26
Mother, silver hair that has lost all its gold
27
You left her alone, went to roam thru' the years
28
But all that you left her was heartaches and tears
29
So, kiss her old brow whisper softly and true
30
Mother, you're just an angel and I love you
31
So, don't wait that late, boys, to try and repay
32
Give those flowers and those treasures and give them today
33
Let her know that you love her and show her that you care
34
â€~Cause she's your mother, God lover her, she's as true as a prayer
35
Mother, though her hands are all wrinkled and old
36
Mother, silver hair that has lost all its gold
37
You left her alone, went to roam thru' the years
38
But all that you left her was heartaches and tears
39
So, kiss her old brow whisper softly and true
40
Mother, you're just an angel and I love you
