Summertimes come and gone
The leaves are slowly falling
The other day my mother heard the voice of Jesus calling
It said come on with me my child and I'll take away your strife
So mama went to sleep on this side and woke up in paradise

Oh but how I miss her so
More than you'll ever know
How I miss her so
More than you'll ever know
How I miss her so
More than you'll ever know


When I was a little child
Mama rocked me in her arms
She protected me from danger
And she kept me safe and warm
But mama is not here now and I'm standing by myself
But as long as I've got Jesus i dont need nobody else


Oh but how I miss her so
More than you'll ever know
Like yesterday I missed her so
More than you'll ever know
How I miss her so
More than you'll ever know
