[Verse 1]
There's a little home on the mountain side
Where flowers bloom and the babies cries
The red bird sings the sweetest song
Where happiness and love was strong
[Verse 2]
We watch the graceful days go by
While hand-in-hand and side-by-side
The children played in ripplin' streams
Nightfall would bring a peaceful dream
[Verse 3]
We made our family and our home
Mother and wife was her love song
But flowers bloom and wilt away
It's in God's plan to come what may
[Instrumental]
[Verse 4]
A fеw short years, her fate was known
Hеr dying breath would not be long
I hang my head, to the Lord I pray
God, take me from this mournful day
[Verse 5]
By her bedside we all did go
And in her arms, our baby hope
And still in quiet of the day
With tears of sadness she did say
[Verse 6]
"Now, children, when you sleep at night
Make sure your heart and soul is right
And if you long for mother's love
I'll meet you in that home above"
[Verse 7]
There's a little grave on a mountain side
Where flowers bloom and the mourning cries
The red bird sings the sweetest song
I'll be with her, it won't be long
