[Verse 1] Mama had a needle and a coat of blue She stitched every promise into every thread for you Buttons from the jar by the window Sleeves made long and true She said keep this around you when the hard days come through [Pre-Chorus] And the snow can bite the porch But her hands still stay In the seams, in the lining In the things she made [Chorus] She'll always love you She'll always love you Like a coat of blue Wrapped tight around you She'll always love you She'll always love you When the cold comes through That love stays with you [Verse 2] You wore it to the station You wore it through the rain You wore it to the backyard When the world felt strange And every frayed small pocket Held a little of her grace Every fold said stay here Every stitch knew your name [Pre-Chorus] And the snow can bite the porch But her hands still stay In the seams, in the lining In the things she made [Chorus] She'll always love you She'll always love you Like a coat of blue Wrapped tight around you She'll always love you She'll always love you When the cold comes through That love stays with you [Bridge] When her voice gets quiet And the house goes still You can hear her laughing In the collar and the hem If the road feels heavy If your heart runs thin Put it on, my darling Let her hold you in [Final Chorus] She'll always love you She'll always love you Like a coat of blue Wrapped tight around you She'll always love you She'll always love you Through the changing days That love finds its way [Outro] Mama made the coat And the coat still knows How to say I love you Wherever you go
