Verse 1
On a dark stormy night the angels called mother
Her love that we shared for such a short while
She called us around and told us she was leaving
Then closing her eyes she went with a smile
Chorus
Mother that rests in a lonesome old graveyard
On a hill a far away there's stands her white tomb
With the grass covered over it seems so neglected
When the spring seasons comes sweet flowers will bloom
Verse 2
I'll never forget the love mother gave us
As children we'd play around our old home
I know her reward is a mansion in heaven
While her children on earth are scattered and gone
(CHORUS)
