Momma

Momma, oh Momma, I tugged your apron strings Always bothered you, with a million little things You always stopped, took me by the hand Answered all my questions, helped me understand You stood beside me, in everything I done When I was feeling down, you called me number one You taught me right from wrong, taught me how to dance To treat girls like ladies, and remember sweet romance Momma, oh Momma, how do I repay For the things you did for me, each and every day I took you for granted, you never let on Now let me thank you and say I love you with this song Momma, oh Momma, Now I can see A whole lot of you, still living in me I stop and smell the roses, like you used to do Now I tell my kids, all the stories of you Time has a way of stealing all the years
But your voice still guides me when life ain’t crystal clear
Every lesson you whispered still carries me along
And I hear you in my heartbeat like a never-ending song Momma, oh Momma, how do I repay
For the things you did for me, each and every day
I took you for granted, you never let on
Now let me thank you and say I love you with this song Momma, oh Momma, I hope you can see
The man that I’ve become is who you raised me to be
I live out your wisdom in everything I do
And I’ll spend my whole life trying to live like you I love you, Momma
