Ray Charles - Mother lyrics

[Chorus] And i surely still do miss my mother Doesn't matter how old that i grow Mother's love will stay with me all through life No matter where i go Ever since the lord called And she left us Parts of her flow through me Every day God has taken her But no one could ever take Mother's love away [Verse 1] Mama could be strong but you knew that she loved you She taught me how to walk and talk and pray Since she's gone on a heaven All those memories of those days And i think of the things that i didn't get a chance to say [Chorus] And i surely still do miss my mother Doesn't matter how old that i grow Mother's love will stay with me all through life No matter where i go Ever since the lord called And she left us Parts of her flow through me Every day God has taken her But no one could ever take Mother's love away [Verse 2] Always there the first thing the morning Making sure that i got up for school Get yourself ready to go She said go to cla** and learn some more And remember that there's no one in the word better than you That's why i miss my mother [Chorus] [Verse 3] There ain't no blues that have been written That could make me feel this way I lost the one that was there for me all my life The day the Lord took mama far away [Chorus]
