Billy Joe Shaver
My Mother’s Name is Victory
[Verse 1]
My pappy was a rough house rounder
My mother’s name is Victory
I’m bound to win this whole world over
For Jesus Christ who lives in me

[Chorus]
For well I know I am a sinner
For well I know my saviour’s name
From where I stand, He lives within us
To one and all, we are the same

[Verse 2]
When Jesus comes in all his glory
We will meet him in the sky
In modern times old gospel stories
Explain the way and reason why

[Chorus]
Oh yes there is a higher highway
Yes there is peace bеyond the shore
When wе have grown into his likeness
Will rising walls through heaven’s door

[Outro]
My pappy was a rough house rounder
My mother’s name is Victory
