Artist/Band: The Stanley Brothers
Lyrics for Song: Sweeter Than The Flowers
Lyrics for Album: Early Starday-King Years 1958-1961 [1995]



Just as far as I can remember

She'll remain the rose of my heart

Mama fell sick along in December

February brought us broken hearts



The reason we've not called a family reunion

We knew that she wouldn't be there

But now that we've thought it all over Mama

We know you're spirit is here



Oh no I can't forget the hours your the only one Momma

And sweeter than the flowers

Oh no there's no use to bother

To speak of you now would only hurt Father

Oh no momma we'll never forget you

And someday we'll meet you up there



We all gathered round and I stared at their faces

All heads were bowed mighty low

But this was one time we all had to face it

Though it hurt us so badly you know



Well it looked so good to see us together

But I had to look after dad

Oh no Mother when I passed by your casket

I didn't want to remember you dead
