Mama Knows
Me and Jimmy Crowder, and a single cigarette
Crouched down in a stall, out in the barn
Three puffs later, we were sick as we could get
Prayin' we'd get better before we got home
She saw me comin' through the back door screen
I knew the minute that she looked at me
Mama knows, mama knows
Sometimes I think she's got a window to my soul
Mama knows, mama knows
Even when I think it doesn't show
Mama knows
Me and Becky Johnson ankle deep in ocean waves
Pants rolled up and hearts out on our sleeves
Both needin' more than either one of us could say
That first love left the sweetest memory
15 and shy, I didn't tell a soul
How is it mama never has to be told?
Mama knows, mama knows
Sometimes I think she's got a window to my soul
Mama knows, mama knows
Even when I think it doesn't show
Mama knows
I wasn't home when mama passed away
I didn't get to say, I love you
But I've got this feelin'
Mama knows, mama knows
Sometimes I think she's got a window to my soul
Mama knows, mama knows
Even when I think it doesn't show
Mama knows, mama knows
Crouched down in a stall, out in the barn
Three puffs later, we were sick as we could get
Prayin' we'd get better before we got home
She saw me comin' through the back door screen
I knew the minute that she looked at me
Mama knows, mama knows
Sometimes I think she's got a window to my soul
Mama knows, mama knows
Even when I think it doesn't show
Mama knows
Me and Becky Johnson ankle deep in ocean waves
Pants rolled up and hearts out on our sleeves
Both needin' more than either one of us could say
That first love left the sweetest memory
15 and shy, I didn't tell a soul
How is it mama never has to be told?
Mama knows, mama knows
Sometimes I think she's got a window to my soul
Mama knows, mama knows
Even when I think it doesn't show
Mama knows
I wasn't home when mama passed away
I didn't get to say, I love you
But I've got this feelin'
Mama knows, mama knows
Sometimes I think she's got a window to my soul
Mama knows, mama knows
Even when I think it doesn't show
Mama knows, mama knows
