Lyric Mama Liked The Roses - Elvis Presley

Lyric Song Mama Liked The Roses: Words yamp; music by J Christopher
Ohmama liked the roses she grew them in the yard
But Winter always came around and made the growing way too hard
Ohmama liked the roses and when she had the time
She d decorate the living roomfor all us kids to see
When I hear the Sunday bells ringing in the morning
I remember crying when she used to sing
Ohmama liked the roses but most of all she cared
About the way we learned to live
And if we said our prayers

You know I kept the family bible
With a rose that she saved inside
It was pressed between the pages
Like it had found a place to hide

Ohmama liked the roses in such a special way
We bring them every Mother s Day
And put them on her grave
Ohmama liked the roses Mmmm
Mama liked the roses
