Lyrics

I saw mom with god last night
I was mad when god took you from me but last night I could plainly see
That he saved you from lots of misery
A smile upon your face told me you were happy as you could be
I'm a gonna ask god if he'll save a place for me
Mother dear sweet precious mother mother (sweet precious mother)
I saw you with god last night
He was holding to your hand showin' you around in the promised land
I saw you with god last night
[ dobro ]
Gonna write two letters to the heaven's blue one to god and one to you
I'm a gonna thank him for bein' so nice to you
I've been cryin' since you went away but not one tear I've shed today
Cause I know now you're happy up there in the heaven's blue
Mother dear sweet precious mother..
