Introduction:

             C                                                 F                                              C  
Now mama wore those skin tight dresses all the time
G7                                                                                                              C  
She worked at the Golden Slipper Cafe every night
F                                                                                    C  
But mama loved me and sister and we both loved her so
F                                                 C            G7                                 C  
But everyone called mama    Golden Slipper Rose
                                                  F                                         C  
Now mama drank and mama laughed and danced all night
G7                                                                                                                                 C  
She made us go to school both taught us wrong from right
F                                                                                                                 C  
And tucked us in with a kiss each night and loved and watched us grow
F                                                      C            G7                                 C  
Still everyone called mama    Golden Slipper Rose
G7                                                                              F                         C  
Looked up to by some and looked down on by many
F                                      C                                      G7  
Loved by just a few so her life goes
F                                                      C            G7                                 C  
Still everyone called mama    Golden Slipper Rose
                                                                  F                                    C  
Now the preacher reads a line that fits mama like a glove
G7                                                                                         C  
He said a woman like this woman was born to be loved
F                                                                                                                              C  
And as they close the lid on mama's life and the town looks down its nose
F                                      C                                 G7                                 C  
Heaven waits to welcome home    Golden Slipper Rose
F                                      C                                 G7                                 C  
Heaven waits to welcome home    Golden Slipper Rose
