Jones, George - Mama's Hands Lyrics

Two genders the baddest

Mom dad brother is in heaven rest high on mountain 🐕 dog

I had never heard this one. Thanks for posting.

As I've grown older, I've come to understand both myself and this world around me rather better;
and I don't think it's any coincidence that the words shown below have so often come to mind recently; as I look in the mirror ?

My daddy's hands held Three's and Two's while mom's were holding me
And daddy's hands lost everything to a hand of Kings and Three's
Then daddy's hands they shook so bad that he turned to wine
But mama's hands were strong and calm as they held on to mine

Yes mama's hands held on to mine to guide me day and night
And it took the sting of mama's hands to teach me wrong from right
When times were bad and money slim she'd fold her hands and pray
Ands somehow she would make the food hold out another day

Now mama's hands are cold with age they tremble as she prays
But her voice is strong as she thanks God for all those bygone days !
She looks at me and then she smiles she knows I understand
That everything I am today I owe to mama's hands
Everything I am today I owe to mama's hands !

My mum The most beautiful mother.She was a jewel.Thank God for gifting her to us for awhile .RIP .I miss you.

They asked johnny cash who his favorite singer was, johnny said you mean after george jones?

the legend George Jones rest in peace

I like my rock music I also like country music also real county music

.....CALL YOUR MOTHER
PEOPLE, ...SHES THE BEST FRIEND YOU WILL
EVER HAVE. THE HANDS THAT ROCK THE CRADLE, RULE THE WORLD....

Wow! My parents use to listen to this thanks so much for the share I was thinking of them laughing and crying thanks so much......😊

My mom was hands were strong but the tone of her voice was more effective

Every time I listen to this song I always remember my grandma...ohh lord knows how much I miss her. Miss u mama

I promised myself I wouldn't cry I promised ahhhhhh f*** I can't help it I can't help it awww lord I lording lord

I love all georges jones songs.....

I miss my Mom very much y'all.

Mom I love and miss you

❤❤❤❤❤💘💘💘

This is to the three gifts that God gave me! Mom does love & very proud of all three of you! I thank God each day for you! Please always know moma will always be with you! Also thank you for my blessing of my beautiful ten grandbabies!

I loved my mum and dad and my husband Ronald well I can't believe that ģoerge Jones don Williams lobo Neil diamond Johnny cash patsy cline Tammy wynnett hank Williams Jim Reeves conway twitty red sovine thes are just a few of the best singers who have a place in my heart for ever from roberta

This was written by my late brother Larry Kingston. It's great to see that his music lives on. Some of Larry's songs I wouldn't even have if it weren't for YouTube and the people who post these songs. Thank you!!!
If you enjoy the classic country, check out some of Larry's own recordings. Just search for Larry Kingston.

Your brother was a talented man. I don't have a brother but I was the only boy and the youngest so needless to say I got my ass beat on a daily by my 4 sister's.

Whoa and Wow.

Wow..so ..honestly ...true...thank you Robin for sharing this...
I hope you don't..mind ...that I shared it too...
Thank you.
Darlene

JERRY LEE LEWIS DID THIS SONG WAS VERY NICE VERSION AS WELL.

I lost my mom to cancer

My Mother's hands, so thin and work-worn,
Were loved by me as jewels, rare,
For they had rocked me in my cradle,
And, lovingly, they'd stroked my hair.
They worked for me, both night and morning;
They helped to smooth away my fears,
For never were these dear hands idle;
I think of them with love and tears!
My Mother's hands to me were precious:
I thought their beauty was sublime;
I felt no harm on earth could touch me
If they were near me all the time! ~Gertrude Tooley Buckingham,
"My Mother's Hands" (1940s)
.

Amen, Will

"Now, Momma's hands are old with age"...you made a mistake on the lyrics! Get it right, or take it off.

God Bless those Mamas

AHH! sing it Possum !

Sorry, if you're a guy, instead of a girl, can't see through all the tears.😢

Thank you George !!!!! My Mama just passed away yesterday, I'll miss her so much, she was an awesome Mom. So sorry to the girl who had a bad relationship with her Mom, that's very sad.😢

A great song love it.

nice song, make the dad a raving alcoholic, mom who beats her kid, then of course all the upbringing is thanks to mom. Fucking stupid song.

+napisr you realize this is how George's childhood was right? This isn't some fabrication. By your logic you shouldn't make a song even if it's about your own experiences because it may seem sexist. Even you must realize that's nonsense.

+napisr One thing I have that you NEVER EVER will have is respect for myself and others. I would not dream of disrespecting anyone by using the language you use. I pity you - you apparently don't have enough brains to think this through. Perhaps you should stand up and take a load off your mind

@Judith Overfield kiss my ass fatty

+napisr - If you haven't had that life, be thankful. Many have. You sound like a piece of shit.

Go have a drink and calm down Alki

this is hard to listen to because it was played at grandma's funeral

thanks Jay I wasnt quiet sure which way it was spelt so thankyou

My grandma heard this song and started crying while she kept saying, "I miss my mama." 😕

Matthew Hagwood you,re never too old to miss someone you loved, l,m74 and tears come to my eyes missing my mama

Sorry for your loss, I'ts got to be very devastating, I'm devoting this song to you in memory of your mom..Hope you like, I will be crushed when my mom goes...

My dad loved this song, I wish I cld have him back

I loved all this music I lost my grandmother a few years ago she was my spirit in life God be with you grandma and you will be loved forever

Another beautiful song.......If you see my mom in Heaven, please give her a kiss & hug for me...........She loved your music.........Tell her how much I miss her.......RIP MR. JONES.

Sorry about the spelling I mean mamas hands

+Vivki Smith Nope--Mama's hands is correct, the apostrophe indicates that the hands belong to Mama---sounds like Mama had a rough time--you surely don't want to take her hands off her, do you?:-)

Can anyone tell me the name of the album mommas hands is on from george jones

Mom I miss you so much that's why I listen to this song. I wish you were still here!

If you ever to meet my mom up in heaven, will you please tell her I miss her so much and love her.

I miss my mom to its been 21 years

Mom I miss you so much I wish you were still here with me.....This song made me cry so hard I was 33 when my mom died & it will be 25 years on Oct 29 2014 that she's been gone Yet I still feel all alone even though I HAVE a wonderful husband whom I've been married to for 31 yrs... George thank you & if you see my mom please tell her I miss her terribly...

I loved Mama's Hands

The greatest country music.

Beautiful song reminds me of my aunt

I love this song.

Amen, mama selalu dgn lembut membelai dan berdoa untuk anak-anaknya agar tetap dalam lindungan Tuhan.

A mother's love is the greatest thing you will ever know

Beautiful, I would love to hold my Mama's hands again.

To this song I send to my mom in heaven. I love u mama.

my late wife and daughter was the best people i have ever new in this world and i thank god for the time that i had them and ask god forforgiveness for my weekness

Dad was never around when I was growing up. Momma worked two jobs to raise three ungrateful children. Now dad is trying to make up for it. But while I want a relationship with him, a part of me can never forgive him for leaving us. We lost mom when I was 19, she was 43....I'm trying now to mend my relationships and make her proud, but its hard....I'm just glad I can always remember the strength she gave me.

So love this song reminds me of my parents

This is so fitting for our family at this time.

this song all way make me sad my mom has gone on to HEAVEN AND I MISS HER

he will be truly miss, I grow up listing to him, my mom had all his albums RIP George Jones

Thanks So Much. Love This!

This Is Beautiful Robin So True Words God Bless !!

good question..

RIP George say Hi to Tammy

who would ve thought i would miss someone who caused so many tears in my eyes....
RIP GEorge Jones.....your songs reached me...

Always felt that anyone who did not like or love our Possum was not worth a "SH" You can bet I'll be reminiscing listening and watching George for a while here. Actually have a great pic of him and I in LV from the 80's when he toured with Merle and others. THANK YOU for the post Little Rattler.

..and everything I am today I owe to mama's hands...yep, George, me too, me too- RIP 4-26-13 Fly easy...

At peace, at last. My first thought was "He stopped loving Tammy today", but really I think his love will last through eternity. No one will ever fill his shoes.
