[Verse 1] Bare feet On a kitchen chair Mama pinning up that hem Soft hands in your hair Hand-me-down lace From the woman she adored You spin once in that mirror She’s crying at the door [Chorus] From a country lil lady to a beautiful bride All that dust on your boots Now a trail down the aisle In your mama’s wedding dress You’re her laughter, you’re her pride From a country lil lady To a beautiful bride [Verse 2] You used to Race the clouds and rain Grass stains on your Sunday knees Wild pony with no reins Grandpa on the porch Telling how the good Lord guides Said, “Girl, love’s like this old farm It takes work and it takes time” [Chorus] From a country lil lady to a beautiful bride All that dust on your boots Now a trail down the aisle In your mama’s wedding dress You’re their laughter, you’re their pride From a country lil lady To a beautiful bride [Bridge] Someday there’ll be little ones Chasing dogs across this land Mud on their jeans Tiny fingers in your hand You’ll tuck them in at night Tell ’em stories by the light How their grandpa used to talk ’Bout a heart that chose right [Chorus] From a country lil lady to a beautiful bride All that dust on your boots Now a trail down the aisle In your mama’s wedding dress You’re their laughter, you’re their pride From a country lil lady To a beautiful bride
