Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Mama Liked The Roses by Elvis Presley from Italian to English.
These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
mama liked the roses
mama liked the roses
she grew them in the yard
she raised them in the yard
But Winter always came around
But Winter always came around
and made the growing way too hard
and made the growing way too hard
mama liked the roses
mama liked the roses
and when she had the time
and when she had the time
She'd decorate the living room
She'd decorate the living room
for all us kids to see
for all us kids to see
When I hear the Sunday bells
When I hear the Sunday bells
ringing in the morning
ringing in the morning
I remember crying
I remember crying
when she used to sing
when she used to sing
mama liked the roses
mama liked the roses
but most of all she cared
but most of all she cared
About the way we learned to live
About the way we learned to live
And if we said our prayers
And if we said our prayers
You know I kept the family bible
You know I kept the family bible
With the rose that she saved inside
With the rose that she saved inside
It was pressed between the pages
It was pressed between the pages
Like it had found a place to hide
Like it had found a place to hide
mama liked the roses
mama liked the roses
in such a special way
in such a special way
We bring them every Mother's Day
We bring them every Mother's Day
And put them on her grave
And put them on her grave
mama liked the roses
mama liked the roses
Mama liked the roses
Mama liked the roses
mama liked the roses
mama liked the roses
