paroles de chanson I Dreamed About Mama Last Night (Acetate Version 26) - 2019 - Remaster - Hank Williams

I've just been to Heaven with someone so true
I dreamed about mama last night
She read me the Bible like she used to do
I dreamed about mama last night

She never closed her eyes and sleep 'til we were all in bed
And on party nights 'til we came home she often sat and read
We little thought about it then for we were young and gay
Just how much mama worried when we children were away

We only knew she never slept when we were out at night
That she waited just to know we'd all come home alright
While sometimes when we'd stay away 'til one or two or three
It seemed to us that mama heard the turnin' of the key

For always when we stepped inside, she'd call and we'd reply
But we were all too young back then to understand the reason why
Until the last one had returned, she'd always keep a light
For mama couldn't sleep until she kissed us all goodnight

She had to know that we were safe before she went to rest
She seemed to fear the world might harm the ones she loved the best
And once she said, "When you've grown into women and to men
Perhaps, I'll sleep the whole night through, I may be different then"

And it seemed that night and day, we knew a mother's care
That always when we got back home, we'd find her waitin' there
Then came the night that we were called together 'round her bed
"The children're all with you now," the kindly doctor said

And in her eyes there gleamed again that old time tender light
That told that she had been waitin', just to know we were all alright
She smiled that old familiar smile, and prayed to God to keep
Her children safe from harm throughout the years, and then mama went to sleep

My dream is a treasure, that I'll always keep
I dreamed about mama last night

Thank you Hank
I never heard you sing that one better
