Stonewall Jackson - Mother The Queen Of My Heart слова песни
I had a home out in Texas out where the Bluebonnet grewI had the kindest old mother how happy we were just we twoThen one day the angels called her a debt we all have to payShe`d call me close to her bedside these last few words to saySon don`t start drinking and gambling promise you`ll always go straightTen years have passed since that promise the promise I thought I`d never breakThen I started drinking for past time and soon I was bad as them allAt cards I was king of the tables never dreaming that I`d ever fallThen one night I sat at the table the big game was down to a drawAnd I drew the one that would beat them but I turned it and here`s what I sawI saw the sad face of my mother and somehow she seemed to sayMy son you have broken your promise you made me when I went awayI gave all my wins to a newsboy went straight home and burned all the cardsAnd I`ll never forget that last promise to my mother the Queen of my heart
