I was buying some flowers on a moring in may When a small child came by And this she did say can you spare me a little That's all that I ask just a little Is all that I need a little Is all that I need well I nelt down beside her and held out the flowers And told her to chose any one There were bright yellow roses And sweet violets but a daisy is all That she chose a daisy is all That she chose. When I asked her, her name and if she could explaine Why a daisy was all that she wanted the tears filled Her eyes and she started to cry She said a daisy reminds me of mama, A daisy reminds me of mama. Mama said heaven has streets that are golden And sweet angels singing dressed in white, So you see this small daisy reminds me of mama For mama 's in heaven to night... Music... Mama said heaven has streets that are golden And sweet angels singing dressed in white So you see this small daisy reminds me of mama For mamas in heaven to night my mamas sleeping in heaven to night.
