mother, the queen of my heart

comments: a jimmy rodgers song
text: (capo up to d)
c g7 c c7
i had a home down in texas
f c
down where the bluebonnets grew
g7 c a
i had the kindest old mother
d7 g g7
how happy we were, just we two
c g7 c
then one day the angels called her
c7 f
said they, we’d all have to pay
f c a
she called me close to her bedside
c g7 c
these last few words to say
son, don’t start drinkin’ and gamblin’
promise you’ll always go straight
ten years have p-ssed since that parting
that promise i broke by mistake
i started in gambling for pastime
at last i was just like them all
i bet my clothes and my money
not dreaming that i’d ever fall
one night i bet all my money
nothing was left to be seen
and all that i needed to beat them
was one card, and that was the queen
the cards were dealt all round the table
each one took a card in the draw
and i drew the one that would beat them
i turned it and here’s what i saw
i saw my mother’s picture
and somehow she seemed to say
“son, you have broken your promise”
so i tossed the cards all away
the winnings i gave to the newsboy
i knew i was wrong from the start
and i’ll never forget my promise
to my mother, the queen of my heart
yodel: c g7 c a
d7 g7 c
