Hank Williams - I Dreamed About Mama Last Night lyrics



I've just been to heaven with someone so true I dreamed about mama last night

She read me the Bible like she used to do I dreamed about mama last night

She never close her eyes to sleep till we were all in bed

And on party nights when we come home she often sat and read

We little thought about it then for we were young and gay

Just how much mama worried when we children were away

We only knew she never slept when we were out at night

That she waited just to know that we'd all come home alright

Why sometimes when we'd stay away till one or two or three

It seemed to us that mama heard the turnin' of the key

For always when we'd step aside she'd call and we'd reply

But we were all too young back then to understand the reason why

Until the last one had returned she'd always keep a light

For mama couldn't sleep until she kissed us all goodnight

She had to know that we were safe before she went to rest

She seemed to fear that the world might harm the ones that she loved the best

And once she told me when you're grown to women and to men

Perhaps I'll sleep the whole night through I may be different then

And so it seemed that night and day we knew a mother's care

That always when we got back home we'd find her waitin' there

Then came the night that we were called together round her bed

The children're all with you now the kindly doctor said

And in her eyes the gleam again that old time tender light

That told that she's just been waitin' to know that we were alright

She smiled that old familiar smile and prayed to God to keep

Her children safe from harm throughout the years tand then she went to sleep

My dream is a treasure that I'll always keep I dreamed about mama last night
