The Ring You're Mother Wore Foster And Allen Lyrics

Foster And Allen sing this song in the key of F#, I have made the chords a bit easier to play. Another ''Mother'' song that Foster And Allen covered is A Mother's Love's A Blessing Song Lyrics which they still sing and play today. We just love to hear songs about our mothers.
An old man was bidding his daughter goodbye
His roof she was leaving that day
You're going to be married, he said with a sigh
From the the old home you're going away
I can't give you riches, it's true
But here is a gift I have treasured for you


It's the ring your Mother wore
On the day she took my name
Just a plain gold band I placed on her hand
When my partner in life she became
It's a simple gift I know
And my fondest hope will be
May it bring the joy to you and your boy
That it brought to your Mother and me


It says you must both pull together through life
And greet all your cares with a smile
Remember your Mother and be a good wife
She was loving and true all the while
And Darling, wherever you go
This keepsake will bring you good fortune, I know


It's the ring your Mother wore
On the day she took my name
Just a plain gold band I placed on her hand
When my partner in life she became
It's a simple gift I know
And my fondest hope will be
May it bring the joy to you and your boy
That it brought to your Mother and me


May it bring the joy to you and your boy
That it brought to your Mother and me.

Oh My Mother
Silver ring on woman's finger
