Nobody Loves You Like Your Mother
There is a woman
North of Santa Fe
She lived in New York
Back in the day
Before the yuppies
Took over Chelsea, oh
Before the Beatles
Took over the States
My first apartment
A 9-month lease
My food and water
Provided for free
I broke the door down
And left her in pain, oh
But she forgave me
And gave me my name
Nobody loves you like your mother
Nobody loves you like that girl
Not your father, sister, or brother
Nobody in this whole damn world
Not every question has an answer
But this is one I know for sure
Nobody loves you like your mother
Nobody loves you like that girl
Oh, no
I came to know her
And all of her grace
Her words of wisdom
The smile on her face
I learned to listen
Instead of just scream, oh
I heard the music
Inside her heartbeat
Nobody loves you like your mother
Nobody loves you like that girl
Not your father, sister, or brother
Nobody in this whole damn world
Not every question has an answer
But this is one I know for sure
Nobody loves you like your mother
Nobody loves you like that girl
Oh, no
And when she leaves me
To go her own way
I will be broken
I won't be okay
But I'll remember
The gift that she gave, oh
Just like my father
My father would say
Nobody loves you like your mother
Nobody loves you like that girl
Not your father, sister, or brother
Nobody in this whole damn world
Not every question has an answer
But this is one I know for sure
Nobody loves you like your mother, ah
Nobody loves you like that girl
Oh, no
North of Santa Fe
She lived in New York
Back in the day
Before the yuppies
Took over Chelsea, oh
Before the Beatles
Took over the States
My first apartment
A 9-month lease
My food and water
Provided for free
I broke the door down
And left her in pain, oh
But she forgave me
And gave me my name
Nobody loves you like your mother
Nobody loves you like that girl
Not your father, sister, or brother
Nobody in this whole damn world
Not every question has an answer
But this is one I know for sure
Nobody loves you like your mother
Nobody loves you like that girl
Oh, no
I came to know her
And all of her grace
Her words of wisdom
The smile on her face
I learned to listen
Instead of just scream, oh

Nobody loves you like your mother
Nobody loves you like that girl

Not every question has an answer
But this is one I know for sure
Nobody loves you like your mother, ah
Nobody loves you like that girl
Oh, no
