The corn was dry the weeds were high when Daddy took to drinking
F

G7
When
him and Lucy Walker they took up and run
away
C

Mama cried a tear and then she promised fourteen children
F

I swear you'll never see a hungry day
C
G7
F
C
Oh the path was deep and wide from footsteps leading to our cabin
F
G7
C
Above the door there burned a scarlet lamp
G7
And late at night a hand would knock
F

And
there would stand a
stranger
F
G7
C
I'm the son of Hickory Holler's tramp
F C
Mama
sacrificed her pride and neighbors started
talking
F
C
G7
But
I was much too young to understand the things they
said
C
F
C
The things that mattered most of all was Mama's chicken dumplings
F
G7
C
And a goodnight kiss before we went to bed
F C
When
Daddy left and destitution came upon our
family
F
C
G7
Not
one neighbor volunteered to give a helping
hand
C
F
C
So
let 'em gossip all they want she loved us and she raised
us
F
G7 C
The
proof is standing here a full grown
man
F
C
Last
summer Mama passed away and left the ones who loved
her
F
C
G7
Each
and every one is more than grateful for his
birth
C
F
C
Each
Sunday she receives a fresh bouquet of fourteen
roses
F
G7
C
And
a card that says to the greatest Mom on
earth
Repeat #2
