Lyrics
Dads are good for teachin' how to pitch and throw a curveball And backin' jon boat trailers down the drive Build a treehouse in a backyard with a Black+Decker skill saw Or fly that front porch home team flag up high Yeah, there's some things that they can do just right But I'm sittin' here, missin' Mama tonight She's got a marked-up King James heart of gold Got too much on her plate, but never lets it show And she put her blood, sweat, and tears into raisin' me And maybe a little more Thank the Lord, that's what mamas are for Sneakin' out and raisin' too much hell at seventeen When I got back homе, she was waitin' on the porch Wasn't pissed off, didn't cuss mе, she just held out her hand And said, "Give me back the keys to my Accord And don't disappoint your mom like this no more" She's got a marked-up King James heart of gold Got too much on her plate, but never lets it show And she put her blood, sweat, and tears into raisin' me And maybe a little more Thank the Lord, that's what mamas are for Yeah, she was a girl scout, she was a prom queen She rode shotgun in cut-off blue jeans She went to college 'til she dropped out Settled down in a not-got-a-lot town When life brought her rain, she got good at prayin' Bought me this old pawn shop guitar that I'm playin' on Yeah, thank you, Mom You got a marked-up King James heart of gold You got too much on your plate, but never let it show And you put your blood, sweat, and tears into raisin' me And maybe a little more Thank the Lord, that's what mamas are for Oh, thank You, Lord, that's what mamas are for
