Track byLester Flatt/Earl Scruggs
I saw mom with God last night I was mad when God took you from me but last night I could plainly see That he saved you from lots of misery A smile upon your face told me you were happy as you could be I'm a gonna ask God if he'll save a place for me Mother dear sweet precious mother mother (sweet precious mother) I saw you with God last night He was holding to your hand showin' you around in the Promised Land I saw you with God last night [ dobro ] Gonna write two letters to the heaven's blue one to God and one to you I'm a gonna thank him for bein' so nice to you I've been cryin' since you went away but not one tear I've shed today Cause I know now you're happy up there in the heaven's blue Mother dear sweet precious mother...
