For my mama she went to heaven, and the last words that she said,
Son you will never follow me, because you're so mean and bad.
Oh [C] but I want to go to heaven, I want to see my mama [Gm] there.
[F] [G] [D] But when I'll stand before the gates of heaven, with [C] a bucket full of sins,
[G] Lord I'm a bad ass motherfucker, but won't you please let me in.
Oh I am a motherless pilgrim, I miss her anywhere.
I want to go to heaven, I want to see my mama there.
I want [C] to play the golden harp, I want to hear my [Gm] mama sing.
[C] [Gm] [G] But [D] when I'll stand before the gates of heaven, [C] with a bucket full of sins,
Lord [G] I'm a bad ass motherfucker, but won't you please let me in.
