Dear Mama
Mama prayed that I'd love Jesus
She knew I'd need to be saved
A hell-bent soul since I was younger
A hell-bent soul until this day
And Mama prayed I'd find a good man
One to love and one to hold
I need a man just like my Father
But I've never been much for doing what I'm told
I fell in love with the bright lights at only seventeen
I was born to be a dreamer just living on a dream
I'm sorry I'm not who you wanted me to be
Oh but Mama I'm gonna make you proud of me
Daddy said "I ain't puttin' up with this no more
I prayed you'd go to college, I pray that you do more"
But I always loved whеn you played your guitar
Daddy I'm sorry I promise I'll make it through
You wеre my first love
Mama I still love Jesus and Daddy I still love you
I fell in love with the bright lights at only seventeen
I was born to be a dreamer just living on a dream
I'm sorry I'm not who you wanted me to be, yeah
I fell in love with the ramblers and I think they fell in love with me
They ask me out tonight and they told me I could sing
I'm gonna make you proud, proud of me
I fell in love with the bright lights at only seventeen
And I was born to be a dreamer just living on a dream
I'm sorry I'm not who you wanted me to be
Oh but Mama I'm gonna make you proud of me
I'm gonna make you proud, proud of me
I fell in love with the bright lights at only seventeen
She knew I'd need to be saved
A hell-bent soul since I was younger
A hell-bent soul until this day
And Mama prayed I'd find a good man
One to love and one to hold
I need a man just like my Father
But I've never been much for doing what I'm told
I fell in love with the bright lights at only seventeen
I was born to be a dreamer just living on a dream
I'm sorry I'm not who you wanted me to be
Oh but Mama I'm gonna make you proud of me
Daddy said "I ain't puttin' up with this no more
I prayed you'd go to college, I pray that you do more"
But I always loved whеn you played your guitar
Daddy I'm sorry I promise I'll make it through
You wеre my first love
Mama I still love Jesus and Daddy I still love you
I fell in love with the bright lights at only seventeen
I was born to be a dreamer just living on a dream
I'm sorry I'm not who you wanted me to be, yeah
I fell in love with the ramblers and I think they fell in love with me
They ask me out tonight and they told me I could sing
I'm gonna make you proud, proud of me
I fell in love with the bright lights at only seventeen
And I was born to be a dreamer just living on a dream
I'm sorry I'm not who you wanted me to be
Oh but Mama I'm gonna make you proud of me
I'm gonna make you proud, proud of me
I fell in love with the bright lights at only seventeen
