Three kids in her minivan
Two for soccer, I did band
No man to lend a hand
No problem
She did it…
Four hungry mouths to feed
A buncha bed time books to read
No time for her own needs
No problem
She did it…
Second thoughts, not a one…
Momma always got it done.

She…dragged us off to school,
Taught us smokin’ wasn’t cool,
Grounded me for breakin’ rules
You name it… she did it
Scraped to buy my first guitar
Promised me that I’d go far
Answered ev’ry late call
For us kids… she did it all

I think of Mom at senior prom
Waited up for us ‘til dawn
Just to teach us right from wrong
Nothing got past her
I learned to keep it true
Aced her course in makin’ do
Me and her we muddled through
Each teenage disaster
Now I fly without a net
But that tough love… I can’t forget

(Chorus)

(Bridge)

I lost her young and though I try
To shed regret, it just won’t die
I only wish I’d had the time to say
Good job... Goodbye…

She…dragged us off to school,
Taught us smokin’ wasn’t cool,
Grounded me for breakin’ rules
You name it… she did it
Scraped to buy my first guitar
Promised me that I’d go far
Answered ev’ry late call
For us kids...
She did it all... she did it all
She did it all…she did it all
