Mama
by B.J. Thomas

Album: American Country

Who's the one who tied you 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 cuz he was too big for you to try?
Mama, Mama
And who's the one you didn't need to plead
to give her time to the little league?
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, my Mama
Mama. oh Mama
Who's the one who taught you obligation,
then dedication, result graduation?
Mama, 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
And who's the one who held a tear inside,
when you introduced your future bride?
And who's the one who didn't mean to cry
as you walked down the aisle,
through tears you saw her smile?
Mama, oh Mama
Mama, my Mama
It was Mama
My Mama
