| ''that was my mother's name'' song lyric 70's
Hurricane Smith recorded a song called "My Mother Was Her Name" in 1972
Artist: Hurricane Smith
Song: My Mother Was Her Name
Year 1972
Note: These lyrics were transcribed by someone on the internet, they may be close but not perfect...
She was the inspiration of her home with music all around,
An out of tune piano, trumpet, drum and fife.
To see her fam’ly all together would be the sweetest sight and sound.
That's just about the simple story of her life.
The sort of sad yet somehow happy lines had worn across her face,
The way a welcome sign is woven to the mat
To give you instant reassurance and always give you pride of place
She never really wanted more than that.
As a noble queen of the May-day
with no extra special right to fame,
She just, gave her life as a dedicated wife,
And my mother was her name.
