Текст песни: Mama's Family Bible + перевод

The estate is being settled, there was only one thing left

My mama’s family bible was laying on the chest

All the others they didn’t want it and that was plain to see

So I took mama’s bible home with me

One sister got the dishes and one the silver ware

And my brother took the radio and her old rocking chair

One by one all the pieces of her home was packed and hauled

But they left me the best part of it all

Mama’s family bible, oh, what a book

It inspired me every time I looked

At all the scriptures that she marked and loved

Mama’s family bible is the treasure I’m proud of

(Spoken)

Now all the dishes are broken, yes, and someone sold the silver ware

And the old radio was sittin' in some junkstore in the square

One by one all the pieces of moma’s life had all disappeared

But mama’s family bible is still here

(Sang)

Mama’s family bible, oh, what a book

It inspired me every time I looked

At all the scriptures that she marked and loved

Mama’s family bible is the treasure that I’m proud of

Mama’s family bible, oh, what a book…
