A Mother’s Love
I was a child of promise but ain’t we all
Had a mind of mine own even when small
Seventeen stretching my wings for the sky
When you’re young you’re never gonna die
A mother’s love is forever
I’ll wait till the fifth of never
You don’t need to be clever
A mother’s love is forever
Started running with the crowd we were cool
Momma tried of course she was just a fool
Smoking cigarettes whistling at the boys
Every Saturday night gonna make some noise
A mother’s love is forever
I’ll wait till the fifth of never
You don’t need to be clever
A mother’s love is forever
Somewhere lost between heaven and hell
Took a wrong turn and nothing was well
All my friends played the disappearing act
I had my pride but I wanted to come back
A mother’s love is forever
I’ll wait till the fifth of never
You don’t need to be clever
A mother’s love is forever
The prodigal daughter fresh meat headed for the slaughter
Despised I was baptized in the devil’s dirty water
Butt of the joke busted and broke walking far behind
Somewhere in my mind I said momma’s always been kind
I said Momma dear I’m sorry for sure
Momma said what you standing there for
Come inside let me make you some hot tea
You’ll always be a precious little girl to me
A mother’s love is forever
I’ll wait till the fifth of never
You don’t need to be clever
A mother’s love is forever
