Mother's Birthday Song
Recorded by Daniel O’Donnell
Written by John Farry

C                                    F
She sits there in the corner in that old easy chair
      G7                      F                C
Grand children all around her not a worry or a care
                           F
Mother's birthday is today but she won't tell her age
    G7                             F                   C
She just smiles and winks and says I've turned another page

                        F
As we sat there talking as conversation flowed
    G7                          F               C
The memories came flooding back of days so long ago
                                       F
When she worked in the fields with dad from morning until dusk
G7                      F                  C
Raising a big family on hard work love and trust
 
                      F
Everybody's loved one everybody's had one
C                                         G7
I hope that you'll have yours a long long time
C
She brought us all into this world
  F                         C      G7              C
A lady with a heart of gold mother sweet mother of mine

                                F
I remember well my younger days working on the farm
    G7                           F            C
She always said hard labor never done you any harm
                                     F
And she’d never go to sleep at night cause sometimes we’d be late
G7                   F               C
Dedicated mother who didn’t mind the wait

                              F
Now a whole new generation is part of God’s great plan
     G7                               F               C
It’s meant her has changed and mother now is known as grand
                               F
And as her young grandchildren sing happy birthday dear
G7                              F            C
Mother gives them all a hug and wipes away a tear

Repeat #3 x2

F         C      G7              C
That’s my mother sweet mother of mine
F  C      G7              F  C
My mother sweet mother of mine
