| Yes, as far as I can remember |
| She’ll remain the rose of my heart |
| Mom took sick along in December |
| February brought us broken heart. |
| The reason we’ve not called the family reunion |
| We knew that she wouldn’t be there |
| But since we’ve thought it all over mama |
| We know that your spirit is there. |
| No, no, I can’t forget the hours |
| You’re the only one mom and sweeter than the flowers |
| No, no, there’s no need to bother |
| Because without you now would only hurt father. |
| Oh, no mama, we’ll never forget you |
| And someday we’ll meet you up there. |

| You looked so sweet we all were together |
| Brother and I close to dad |
| Oh mama, when I passed by your coffin |
| I didn’t want to remember you dead. |
| They all gathered round, I stared at their faces |
| All heads were bowed mighty low |
| But that was one time we all had to face it Though it hurt us so bad you know. |
| No, no, I can’t forget the hours |
| You’re the only one mom and sweeter than the flowers |
| No, no, there’s no need to bother |
| Because without you now would only hurt father. |
| Oh, no mama, we’ll never forget you |
| And someday we’ll meet you up there… |
