Mama's Funeral Lyrics

	Nah nah nah nah…
	At mama’s funeral, organs didn’t play
	But you could hear the lonesome sway
	Of the local guitar man
	He played
	Hank Williams songs
	We all did ‘
	Farther Along’
	The boys drank beer out by the barn
	At mama’s funeral
	Oh the birds showed up to sing
	As we gathered round the ole porch swing
	Where her feet had worn the paint off the boards
	And her pillow sat all faded and torn
	Her children all took turns
	Trying to find the words
	Just wantin to say something right
	Bout the best friend they’d found in life
	And explain it to the nurses that came from the hospital
	To mama’s funeral
	It was surprising to me, thought it’d be as hard as it could be
	But everybody took a little piece of pain
	And they spread it round like summer rain
	And it helped to ease the load
	More than
	I could’ve known
	At mama’s funeral
	And my family made me proud
	Cause when the cryin got loud
	The laughter followed close behind
	Daddy’d say “now don’t all remember the time…”
	Tables set up all over the place
	Covered with pictures, candles and lace
	The Quik Sack stayed open late
	Sold out of all their cups and paper plates
	To the strangers that gathered up on the hill
	For mama’s funeral
	All the pretty flowers planted by her hands
	Her guitar in a corner sittin on a stand
	Nah nah nah nah…

	Nah nah nah nah
