Songtexte I Saw Mother with God Last Night - Earl Scruggs , Lester Flatt

I saw mom with God last night
I was mad when God took you, from me
But last night I could plainly see
That He saved you from lots of misery

A smile upon your face told me
You were happy as you could be
I'm a gonna ask God if He'll save a place for me

Mother, dear sweet precious mother, mother
(Sweet precious mother)
I saw you with God last night
He was holdin' to your hand
Showin' you around in the Promised Land
I saw you with God last night

Gonna write two letters to the heaven's blue
One to God, and one to you
I'm a gonna thank Him for bein' so nice to you

I've been cryin' since you went away
But not one tear I've shed today
'Cause I know now you're happy up there
In the heaven's blue

Mother, dear sweet precious mother, mother
(Sweet precious mother)
I saw you with God last night
He was holdin' to your hand
Showin' you around in the Promised Land
I saw you with God last night
