Lyrics Mama's Table - The Oak Ridge Boys

Mama's Table

We pull a chair up every night
Eat and talk and joke and fight
Us kids learned wrong from right at mama’s table
It was just some hickory wood and screws
It’s where my daddy read the news
You didn’t put your dirty shoes on mama’s table
It was the center of the best times i remember
Sometimes the only thing that brought us all together
Grandma passed it down when i was in a cradle
It’s in my kitchen now but it’s still my mama’s table
It’s where my brother and i played games
I just knew he’d gone insane the day
He carved his name in mama’s table
When we got down on our luck
It seemed like it held us up
You could always feel the love in mama’s table
It was the center of the best times I remember
Sometimes the only thing that brought us all together
Grandma passed it down when I was in a cradle
It’s in my kitchen now, but it’s still my mama’s table
It has some faded spots and cracks
A couple of burns from candle wax
A memory in each scratch on mama’s table
