Lyrics and music:R Christopher John Lee J

Key:

Intro :

Oh mama liked the r oses she grew them in the y ard

But Winter always c ame around and made the gr owing way too hard

Oh mama liked the r oses and when she had the t ime

She'd decorate t he living room for all us kids t o see

When I hear the S unday bells ringing in the m orning

I remember c rying when she used to si ng

Oh mama liked the r oses but most of all she c ared

About the way we l earned to live and if we s aid our prayers

" You k now I kept the fami ly b ible

With a rose that she saved inside

It was pressed between the pages

Like it had found a place to hide"

Oh mama liked the r oses in such a special w ay

We bring them every M other's Day and put them o n her grave

Oh mama liked the r oses Mmmm

Mama liked the r oses Mmmm
