some things i want to sing about - mel mcdaniel lyrics

Loading...

i can still see mama stooped around those cotton stocks
when she picked one she picked a hundred bales
me and all my brothers would take time about
dragging mama’s sack up to the scales
while my little sister slept in a peaceful sleep
mama laid her in a trailer shade
daddy was in denville working for the railroad
when he was coming home we couldn’t wait

these are just some things i want to sing about
mem’ries i can’t live without
diamonds buried deep down in my mind
lord thoughts i can’t quit thinking
a fountain i’ll keep drinking from
and a taste that’s gettin’ sweeter all the time

[ harmonica ]
i remember thinking time was grand when mother’s lived
where brothers went to catch a bus or train
oh a treasured thought is daddy grinnin’ ear to ear
every time we’d hear the old chug wagon gang
among the many things i can’t forget about
seeing mama whisper silent prayer
i turned and left too slowly without a ever knowing
there was ever anybody there

these are just some things i want to sing about
mem’ries i can’t live without
diamonds buried deep down in my mind
lord thoughts i can’t quit thinking
a fountain i’ll keep drinking from
and a taste that’s gettin’ sweeter all the time

these are just some things i want to sing about
mem’ries i can’t live without
diamonds buried deep down in my mind
lord thoughts i can’t quit thinking
a fountain i’ll keep drinking from
and a taste that’s gettin’ sweeter all the time
