Stitches
There's a scar on my right elbow
From a barbed wire fence when I was eight years old
I must have ran a mile just crying in my torn shirt
Till I heard the words "Tell me where it hurts"
If there was a scratch or a bruise on my skin
Mama would put me back together again
All it took was her prayers and her kisses
It would heel me just like stitches
I took Sherry Johnson to the high school dance
But she left early with my best friend
I must of drove ten miles to get my mind off her
But it didn't work till I heard the words "Tell me where it hurts"
If there was a scratch or a bruise on my skin
Mama would put me back together again
All it took was her prayers and her kisses
It would heel me just like stitches
She could mend a broken heart or fix a bicycle wreck
Funny now but back then, it seemed like life or death
I've seen her sew rags into riches
It would heel me just like stitches
If there was a scratch or a bruise on my skin
Mama would put me back together again
All it took was her prayers and her kisses
It would heel me just like stitches
Her love would heel me just like stitches
From a barbed wire fence when I was eight years old
I must have ran a mile just crying in my torn shirt
Till I heard the words "Tell me where it hurts"
If there was a scratch or a bruise on my skin
Mama would put me back together again
All it took was her prayers and her kisses
It would heel me just like stitches
I took Sherry Johnson to the high school dance
But she left early with my best friend
I must of drove ten miles to get my mind off her
But it didn't work till I heard the words "Tell me where it hurts"
If there was a scratch or a bruise on my skin
Mama would put me back together again
All it took was her prayers and her kisses
It would heel me just like stitches
She could mend a broken heart or fix a bicycle wreck
Funny now but back then, it seemed like life or death
I've seen her sew rags into riches
It would heel me just like stitches
If there was a scratch or a bruise on my skin
Mama would put me back together again
All it took was her prayers and her kisses
It would heel me just like stitches
Her love would heel me just like stitches
