Holly Williams - Mama lyrics

rate me

<br>You could?ve been bitter you could?ve hated him <br>You could?ve talked about the whiskey and the women <br>He couldn?ve done better but you loved him anyhow <br>Then you taught us all the power of forgiveness <br> <br>Mama you were smiling when you could?ve been crying all night <br>Mama you made me believe everything was alright <br>Mama you never wore your pain too thick <br>I?d like to thank you for this <br> <br>You could?ve fought you could?ve cut him down to shame <br>You could?ve told us that our daddy didn?t want us <br>But that wasn?t true and you knew it all along <br>It was a struggle between the road and loving you <br> <br>Mama you were smiling when you could?ve been crying all night <br>Mama you made me believe everything was alright <br>Mama you never wore your pain too thick <br>I?d like to thank you for this <br> <br>You did more good for me than you will ever know <br>I?ve seen mothers fill their childrens hearts with hate <br>But you knew better than to drag me down with you <br>You let me love my daddy just the same <br> <br>Mama you were smiling when you could?ve been crying all night <br>Mama you made me believe everything was alright <br>Mama you never wore your pain too thick <br>I?d like to thank you for this <br>Oh I?d like to thank you for this<br><!-- stopprint -->
