When Mama Sang (The Angels Stopped To Listen)
Danny Walls, Bob Warren
Performed by: George Jones


(A)Mama didn't(D) have special(A) training
She couldn't read the music just the (E)words
But (A)when she'd stand to (D)sing on Sunday (A)morning
She had the sweetest voice I (E)think I've ever (A)heard

She (A)loved to sing the (D)songs about her (A)Saviour
"There Is A Fountain" was her favorite (E)one
And I've (A)seen tears roll (D)down the cheeks of(A) sinners
By the time my (E)mama's song was (A)done

When (A)mama sang the (D)angels stopped to (A)listen
You could see the love light shinin' in her (E)face
When (A)mama sang the (D)angels stopped to (A)listen
Now in heaven's choir she (E)has a special (A)place

spoken
You know my (A)daddy wanted me to (D)sang somethin' the day that mama (A)left us
And you know that little church was filled with all of mama's (E)friends
And you know it (A)seemed that we could all (D)hear mama (A)singin'
When I couldn't finish (E)up her favorite (A)hymn

When (A)mama sang the (D)angels stopped to (A)listen
You could see the love light shinin' in her (E)face
When (A)mama sang the (D)angels stopped to (A)listen
Now in heaven's choir she (E)has a special (A)place
