That's What Mamas Are For |
| Dads are good for teaching how to pitch and throw a curve ball |
| And backing jumbo trailers down the drive |
| Build a tree house in a back yard with a Black &Decker skill saw |
| Fly that front porch home team flag up high |
| Yeah, there’s some things that they can do just right |
| But I’m sitting here, missing mama tonight |
| She’s got a marked-up King James heart of gold |
| Got too much on her plate but never lets it show |
| And she put her blood, sweat, and tears into raising me |
| And maybe a little more |
| Thank the Lord, that’s what mamas are for |
| Sneaking out and raising too much hell at seventeen |
| When I got back home she was waiting on the porch |
| Wasn’t pissed off, didn’t cuss me, she just held out her hand |
| And said, «Give me back the keys to my Accord» |
| And don’t disappoint your mom like this no more |
| She’s got a marked-up King James heart of gold |
| Got too much on her plate but never lets it show |
| And she put her blood, sweat, and tears into raising me |
| And maybe a little more |
| Thank the Lord, that’s what mamas are for |
| Yeah, she was a girl scout, she was a prom queen |
| She rode shotgun in cut-off blue jeans |
| She went to college till she dropped out |
| Settled down in a not-got-a-lot town |
| Well, I brought her rain, she got good at praying |
| Bought me this old pawn shop guitar |
| That I’m playing on, yeah, thank you, mom |
| You got a marked-up King James heart of gold |
| Got too much on your plate but never let it show |
| And you put your blood, sweat, and tears into raising me |
| And maybe a little more |
| Thank the Lord, that’s what mamas are for |
| Oh, thank You, Lord, that’s what mamas are for |
