Hank Snow - That Pioneer Mother Of Mine Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • Somewhere out there on the prairie alone my guardian angel divine
  • Is there at rest somewhere in the west that pioneer mother of mine
  • I'd give all I own today if someone would guide my way
  • To that hallowed spot where she's sleeping that pioneer mother of mine
  • There is nothing left of her busy life but the things she made when her days were full
  • A couple of rugs on the kitchen floor and an afgan knitted out of bits of wool
  • Her garden has a deserted look and the weeds show up in the sunshine smile she is dead
  • And the things she fought run wild and you stop and think was her life worth while
  • But if you had known as well as I knew the quiet good and the helping hand
  • And the neighborly warm big heart of hers I think you would really understand
  • That not all the people that we call great are really greatest in the end
  • And perhaps the finest thing in life is a homely common every day friend
  • So the little life with the homely tasks has worked it's pattern and so goes on
  • What if the weeds grow rank again and what if the flowers are dead and gone
  • Ah the little woman of small account with the cheerful smile on her brave old face will never die
  • For the tide of years will produce her like to take her place
  • I'd give all I own today if someone would guide my way
  • To that hallowed spot where she's sleeping that pioneer mother of mine
