[Verse] Mama worked late nights, dreams on hold Stepdad pulled oil from the Gulf of Mexico, At Christmas I had a sack for me, and Sis had sack for her Bikes and new shoes wrapped in a blur [Chorus] You only get one mom, one heart that beats Through the years of struggle, through the love it keeps Now it’s my turn to give back what she gave She built our world, now we repay [Verse 2] Seven and seven, his schedule was tight Mama held us close through the dark nights She never let us see the cracks or strain Her smile stood strong through the hurt and pain She never left us standing in the pouring rain [Chorus] You only get one mom, one heart that beats Through the years of struggle, through the love it keeps Now it’s my turn to give back what she gave She built our world, now we repay [Bridge] Patchwork on my work shirts, stitched with her care Lullabies hummed through the thinning air A house of love when the world turned rough She taught me and her how to be tough, and that broken can still be enough [Chorus] You only get one mom, one heart that beats Through the years of struggle, through the love it keeps Now it’s my turn to give back what she gave She built our world, now we repay [Bridge] Patchwork on my work shirts , stitched with her care Lullabies hummed through the thinning air A house of love when the world turned rough She taught me and her how to be tough, and that broken can still be enough [Chorus] You only get one mom, one heart that beats Through the years of struggle, through the love it keeps Now it’ s my turn to give back what she gave She’s our world, now we repay She never let us see the cracks or strain Her smile stood strong through the hurt and pain She never left us standing in the pouring rain [Chorus] You only get one mom, one heart that beats Through the years of struggle, through the love it keeps Now it’ s my turn to give back what she gave She built our world, now we repay [Bridge] Patchwork on my work shirts, stitched with her care Lullabies hummed through the thinning air A house of love when the world turned rough She taught me and her how to be tough, and that broken can still be enough [Chorus] You only get one mom, one heart that beats Through the years of struggle, through the love it keeps Now it’ s my turn to give back what she gave She built our world, now we repay [Bridge] Patchwork on my work shirts , stitched with her care Lullabies hummed through the thinning air A house of love when the world turned rough She taught me and her how to be tough, and that broken can still be enough [Chorus] You only get one mom, one heart that beats Through the years of struggle, through the love it keeps Now it’ s my turn to give back what she gave She’ s our world, now we repay
