Date: 14 Feb 02 Song: What A Memory Artist: Tracy Lawrence Transposed by: Eddie Garcia ([email protected]) What A Memory On the day momma died she called daddy to her side And said I?ll be goin? soon, I know it?s gonna hurt you both But promise me before I go you?ll do what I ask of you In a big red folgers can hid behind the pots and pans You?ll find some money that I?ve saved And in the back of my dresser drawer I put away a little more for a rainy day Go to town and buy that new guitar Cause he?s been workin? awful hard To get his own, to write his songs? (chorus) Oh what a memory, oh what a memory And even in her final moments momma thought of me What a memory She was only thirty-five, I was fifteen askin? why The lord took her away, he must?ve known we needed her She was an angel here on earth, I still miss her everyday With all her friends and half the town And her family gathered round I bet she never felt so loved When everybody?s heads were bowed I did my best to make her proud, as I stood up And I sang rock of ages, cleft for me As I played it on that new six string I couldn?t help but cry, as we said goodbye (repeat chorus) Even in her final moments Momma thought of me What a memory What a memory Eddie Garcia **Keepin' it Country**
