The Day I Made My Mam Cry

Folks say don’t cry, don’t be lonely, don’t sigh But I made my Mam cry Tears filled my eyes, to see my Mam cry Mam got bad I got sad Now at the hospital bed I sigh To see my Mam die and I cry How sorry I am that I made my Mam cry Now all that’s left are thoughts of happier times now gone by Mams laughter, Mams joy, her voice as she’d rejoice Her Lord had come, and said come How I miss her tender ways But only one of us will say, I’m sorry I made my Mam cry Look happy stop those tears, look at photos of happier days Happy days except for one, the day that I made my Mam cry Now later I rejoice to know that in time I’ll hear her voice When on that happy road I’ll go, to know I’ll see her with our Lord
