Loretta Lynn Mama Why? Live Video 1967 Loretta Lynn Mama Why? Lyrics (Oh mama why did God take my daddy cause I'd been good just like he said to be I heard daddy pray dear Lord don't take me from them Oh mama why did God take him from me) Come here son you've asked mama somethin' that's even hard for me to understand For there's one thing I do know Daddy wouldn't gonna see those tears in the eyes of this big man So stop cryin' now and listen real careful to every word mama has to say You see son God picks the sweetest most beautiful flowers that grow And he makes them the brightest shiniest stars that glow Now daddy talk with the Lord every day and daddy and God'll be real close So let's just say it seems that God takes the ones he loves the most (Oh mama why did God take my daddy) Son you haven't heard a word that mama said So come on now let's say your prayers and mama tuck you in bed And we must have questioned God cause he already has everything planned And honey daddy can't ever come back to us though we can go to him (Oh mama why did God take him from me)
