lirik lagu red sovine - roses for mama

well, i had two weeks vacation comin’
so i thought i’d drive down to florida
spend some time with an old friend, date a few girls
make a few parties, and just kinda live it up again

so i packed up my car and then i called my mom in tennessee
and told her what i planned to do
she said, “son, are you comin’ by?” and i said, “mom, i’m
really pushed for time, but i’ll see you in a week or two”

and i was drivin’ through this little town in georgia
when i remembered today’s mama’s birthday
well, i thought i’ll just stop and wire some flowers
shouldn’t take too long, then i’ll be on my way

so i walked in a flower shop and the first thing i saw
was this little boy, with his eyes full a’ tears
i said, “what’s wrong, son?” he said, “mama loves roses
and today’s her birthday and i haven’t seen her in almost a year”

roses for mama
today’s her birthday
roses for mama
today’s her birthday

he said, “i live with grandma now
but i promised mama some roses, ’cause i talk to her all the time
i wanted to give her five, ’cause that’s how old i am
but the lady said i couldn’t buy ’em with just a dime”

well, the little fella’s story kind a’ touched my heart
so i told the lady to give him what he wanted and charge it to me
then i told her i needed to wire
a dozen roses to my mama, up in chapel hill, tennessee

i looked around and the little boy was gone
but all of a sudden the door flew open
and he come runnin’ back in and he said
“mister, i forgot to thank you for the roses”
he smiled, he shook my hand, and ran back out again

well, i started on out of town
and i was feelin’ real proud of myself for thinkin’ of my mama
and really carin’, when i looked out the window and i saw
that same little boy, kneelin’, by a grave in an old cement
