Mother, The Queen Of My Heart |
| I had a home out in Texas out where the Bluebonnet grew |
| I had the kindest mother how happy we were just we two |
| Till one day the angels called her it’s the debt that we all have to pay |
| She’d call me close to her bedside these last few words she did say |
| Now son don’t start drinking or gambling promise you’ll always go straight |
| Ten years have passed since that parting that promise I’ve broke I must say |
| I started drinking for past time at last Lord I was just like them all |
| I bet my clothes and my money never dreaming that I’d ever fall |
| One night I’ve bet all my money nothing was left to be seen |
| All that I needed to break them was one card and that was a Queen |
| Cards were delt all round the table each man took a card from the draw |
| But I drew the one that would beat them I turned it here’s what I saw |
| I saw mama’s picture somehow she seemed to say |
| Son you have broken your promise I tossed those cards away |
| My winnings I gave to a newsboy cause I knew I was wrong from the start |
| And I’ll never forget that promise to mother the Queen of my heart |
