Now mama wore those skin tight dresses all the time She worked at the Golden Slipper Cafe every night But mama loved me and sister and we both loved her so But everyone called mama Golden Slipper Rose Now mama drank and mama laughed and danced all night She made us go to school both taught us wrong from right And tucked us in with a kiss each night and loved and watched us grow Still everyone called mama Golden Slipper Rose Looked up to by some and looked down on by many Loved by just a few so her life goes Still everyone called mama Golden Slipper Rose Now the preacher reads a line that fits mama like a glove He said a woman like this woman was born to be loved And as they close the lid on mama's life and the town looks down its nose Heaven waits to welcome home Golden Slipper Rose Heaven waits to welcome home Golden Slipper Rose
