Intro: G C D G C D G
G
Well, I had two weeks vacation comin', so I thought I'd drive down to
C
Florida: spend some time with an old friend, date a few girls, make a few
D
parties, and just kinda live it up again.
So I packed up my car, and then I called my Mom in Tennesee, and
(D) G
told her what I planned to do. And she said, "Son, are you comin' by?
And I said, "Mom, I'm really pushed for time, but honey I'll see you in a week or two."
And I was drivin' through this little town in Georgia, when I remembered:
today is Mama's birth--day. Well, I thought I'd just stop and wire some
flowers. Shouldn't take too long; then I'd be on my way.
So I walked in the flower shop and the first thing I saw was this
little boy with his eyes full a' tears. And I said, "Son, (what's
wrong?" He said, "Mama loves roses. And today's her birthday, and I haven't seen her
in almost a year."

C
He said, "I live with Grandma now. But I promised Mama some roses,
D
'causeI talk to her all the time. I wanted to give her five, 'cause
that's how old I am. But the lady said I couldn't buy 'em for just a dime."
D G
Well, the little fella's story kind a' touched my heart, so I told
C
the lady just give him what he wanted and charge it to me. Well that's
when I told her to wire a dozen roses to my Mama, up in Chapel Hill,
Tennessee.
G
I looked around, and the little boy was gone. But all of a sudden the
door flew open and he came runnin' back in and he said, "Mister, I forgot to
thank you for the roses." He smiled and he shook my hand, and ran back
out again.
Well, I started on out of town. And I was feelin' real proud of myself
for thinkin' of my Mama and really carin', when I looked my window
D G
and I saw that same little boy, kneelin', by a grave in an old cemetery.
Well I stopped my car and walked over to where the little boy was
kneelin' down. He smiled up at me and he said, "This is where my Mama
stays. She says she sure does thank you for these pretty roses." Well
that's when I had to walk away.
And I drove right back to that flower shop and I said, "Lady, have you sent those
C
flowers to Tennessee?" And she said, "No, not yet."
D G
And I said, "Well, just never mind. I'll just take em back with me."
