Mrs. Taylor by Scott Riggan


Song Lyrics


Mrs. Taylor
by Scott Riggan

Album: Act of Surrender EP


She left him at the station
Small town Illinois
He's 6-1 and 205 now
But he'll always be her little boy
She knew this was his calling
She was strong as she could've been
She prayed for extra angels
To bring him home again

So if you raise your glass to freedom
And this land we hold so dear
If you don't know what it's like
Living every day in fear
If you raise your voice to city hall
'cause you're free to speak your mind
And sing Amazing Grace on Sunday
With your family by your side
Remember Mrs. Taylor's son
And pray he's somewhere safe tonight

She carries a faded picture
From when he was only two
And remembers how she melted
When he said his first "I love you"
Some think he's a hero
And some make picket signs
She just turns the TV down
And thinks of better times

They fired 21 guns on Tuesday
And laid a flag in the trembling hands
Of one more American mother
Who gave all a mother can

Remember Maggie Taylor
And pray that she finds peace tonight
