Verse 1
9 months of pain and then you brought me in
The first heartbeat I felt before breathing began
You loved me first and I’ve been playing ketchup
When I ripped my jeans you helped me get patched up
You had my back since way back
before I could trace back
my first memories in dungarees
Theres no pay back
The way you rubbed my back I could never forget it
The way you walked with me thanks just don’t cut it
When we had that government cheese we didn’t think much of it
Because of your love the joy rose us above it
When I act a fool you made me get the switch
Teaching lessons on my backside made me rich
Come to think of it those paved the way
Mama you made me the man I am today
‘One of a kind Your so loving and kind
When God made you he framed the design
I bet he put it on his wall like you did all my pictures
God’s got heavenly rewards and I know you’ll get yours
10 fold, Too many times Ive been told just how much Im loved
Though I’m sinful, you always gave me a hug
The life you put on hold I could never repay
And even so I’ll say thanks anyway
Thanks Mama
Happy Mother’s Day

Hey Mama
How wonderful you are
In my life you’re a bright shinning star
I wanna hold you up so the whole world can see
Just how wonderful you are to me
Without Mama
I couldn’t go far
Even if I was old enough to drive a car
If they only took a peek it’s plain to see
Your the most wonderful thing to me
Verse 2
And to my wife, the love of my life
My biggest blessing
When I ever try to do what you do I’m always stressing
And you make it look easy up at 3 in the morn
With no tissue wiping noses since the day they were born
Packing lunches in your sleep
Watching closely What they eat
If it’s nice outside turning off the tv
Making sure they run in the sun and have some fun
Cuz our kids health is your priority #1
When it comes to cleaning, you’re wild go getter
But what i love Most is you help me love them better
When it’s cold you get they sweater
Cuz u always know the weather
If there’s a better mother for our kids I never met her.
You are the band aid for their boo boos
No one can do what you do,
You either got the force or some crazy witch’s voodoo
But if only you knew that Jesus uses you
to prove the world unconditional love is true.
Looking at you theres a truth I can’t ignore
Not trying to compare or trying to keep score
When it comes to parenting I wouldn’t say that I’m poor,
But the way you Mom pushes me to be much more.
Thanks Mama
Happy Mother’s Day
I love you Mama
Happy Mother’s Day
