Mother Ain't Dead

[Intro] Well, this really is a bit of history now because... Rod and I haven't sung together in, uh, so many years. In fact, I think it's, uh... 1965 since we had the Steam Packet, that was the last venture we had together. This is the second time ever that we've ever recorded anything together [Chorus] Mother ain't dead She's only a-sleepin' Patiently waitin' for Jesus to come [Verse 1] She got so sick Last year in the winter Now shе's patiently waitin' for Jesus to come [Verse 2] Oh, fathеr's so sad He's a-missin' ol' momma Patiently waitin' for Jesus to come (play it there) [Verse 3] The birds will be there All is sweet in their spring time Patiently waitin' for Jesus to come [Chorus] Mother ain't dead She's only a-sleepin' Patiently waitin' for Jesus to come Patiently waitin' for Jesus to come Patiently waitin' for Jesus to come
