Momma Knows

Momma Knows

(الألبوم: Audiology - 2017)

I had a guitar when I was younger
But couldn't afford to keep it in tune
And all those strings and things
My momma told me "Son I'll buy you another"
"Your birthday's coming up in June"
And I watched her work a nine to ten, yes I did
No-o-o time to make friends, yeah
Come Christmas morning I couldn't believe what was sitting there
Was a Yamaha FG700 right next to grandma's rocking chair

Momma knows
Momma knows, momma knows best
Momma knows
Momma knows, momma knows best
She said never make a promise, a promise you can't keep
'Cause momma knows
Momma knows best

Oh-ooh-ooh-oh-oh na na na
Oh-oh-I
Momma knows

Nine years young I should be sleeping alone
Momma prayed for a good man to help keep house and a home
But while you were away momma this house was in flames
Truth is such a bitter taste when the fruit is of the family
Let's try some truth tonight, how 'bout some honesty
'Cause when he touched me, I played sleep and I closed my eyes as the tears were drowning me
You knew something was wrong, something was different about me that morning
Yeah you knew, you knew, I couldn't bring myself to say who

Momma knows
Momma knows, momma knows best
Momma knows
Momma knows, momma always knows better
She said never make a promise, a promise you can't teach
But momma knows
Momma knows, momma knows best

Hope this song, finally sets me free
Taking back, what was stolen from me
Hope this song, leaves you sincere
Mom I know leaving was taking your joy of being mommy of the year

Momma knows best
I know how much it meant to you to be a good momma
Momma knows best
Momma knows best
Momma knows best
Oh but you did your best
Momma knows best
I played myself
She knows, yeah she knows
I played myself when it happened
Momma knows best
But now I know it's just a lesson somebody needs to hear about
Momma knows best
I know I gotta talk about it
Momma knows best
Momma knows best
She knows, yes she knows
