Mama

This one is for you, mama, mama

You have seen me through, mama, mama

Mother

I'll write to let you know the way I feel inside

The things you did for me, oh, I just can't hide

Swallow my pride

I remember the days that you worked late

Got to home fate, got the food on the table

Even though daddy wasn't there

You were willing and able

Told us how to pray, to make the way

You always said we should stick together

Even through the roughest times

You promised it would be better

Mama, ma-mama, mama, mama, mama

You worked so hard

You deserve the award

My mama, mama, my mama, my mama

You are the best, and so I must confess

I wonder what would life had been

If you weren't there

No one to show me love or even care

To enrace all my fair

But mama, you were there
