Mother The Queen Of My Heart - Ernest Tubb
I had a home down in Texas down
Where the Bluebonnets grew
I had the kindest old mother
How happy we were just we two
Till one day the angels called her
That debt we all have to pay
She'd call me close to
Her bedside these last few words to say
Now son don't start drinking and gambling promise
You'll always go straight
Ten years have passed since that parting
That promise I've broke I must say
I started in gambling for past time
And last I was just like them all
I bet all my clothes and my money
Not dreaming that I'd ever fall
One night I've bet all my money
Nothing was left to be seen
And all that I needed to break them
Was one card and that was a Queen
The cards were delt round
The table each man took a card on the draw
I drew the one that would beat them
I turned it that here's what I saw
I saw my mother's picture
And somehow she seemed to say
Son you have roken your promise so
I told those cards away
My winnings I gave to a newsboy
I knew I was wrong from the start
And I'll never forget that promise
To my mother the Queen of my heart
