MAMA I REMEMBER THEM THOSE DAYS for Mother Chlorine Rodgers--

*MAMA I REMEMBER THEM THOSE DAYS-

Mama, I remember the those days;
When you and grandma prayed;
We stayed in a church, them days;

Mama, I remember when we’d dance and sing;
Those this was be the joys, I’m now reminiscing;

And O’ what a time;
Seasons came around;
You in the kitchen;
Makin them pies, my, my, my

Mama, I remember them those days;
Mama, I remember them those days;
you teaching me my ABC's
you showing me what I need;
you holdin and huggin me;
you reprimanding, scolding me;

And O’ what a time;
Seasons came around;
You in the kitchen;
Makin them cakes and pies, my, my, my

Mama, I remember them those days;
