There's a death in my family
And my mother died last night
There's a death in my family
And my mother died last night
Don't tell me to work now, people
Because paying don't seem right
Now, my mother was a good woman
And she loved me all the days
Now, my mother was a good woman
And she loved me all the days
She was the best friend in my life
And right now, she's passed away
They say try to remember
She has gone to a better rest
Oh, she was sick for so long people
Maybe this is best
But how my heart is achin
I could never have guessed
Whoa, well well well well
Well well well well well well
Whoa, well well well well
Well well well well well well well
I wanted to low her down easy
I wanted to ring the tollin bell
