Dave Berry - Mama

Who's the one who tied your shoe when you were young
And knew just when to come and see what you had done?
Mama
Oh, mama

And who's the one who patched your eye
And told you not to cry
'Cause he was too big for you to try?
Mama
My mama

And who's the one you didn't need to please
To give her time to the little me?
It was mama
Oh, mama

And who's the one who gave her shoulder
When you told her your first love was over
She'd met someone older?
Mama
Mama

It was mama
Oh, mama

Mama
Oh, mama

Who's the one who taught you obligation
And dedication result in graduation?
Mama
Oh, mama

And who's the one who's shown
The friends you've known
A home away from home
When they were tired and all alone?
Mama
Mama

Who's the one who held a tear inside
When you introduced your future bride?
And who's the one who didn't cry
As you walked down the aisle
The tears, you saw her smile
Mama
Mama

My mama
It was mama
Oh, mama
It was mama
