Lyrics
Each day when I wake up / my heart swells with pride
Knowing I have momma by my side
She always guided me / knew just what to say
Picked me up and sent me on my way
Chorus
Momma used to hold me / When I broke down and cried
Momma told me son never lye
Always there through thick and thin / never changing with the wind
Growing up with momma by my side
Verse
You're the Angel that brought me life / love and faith you gave
Stayed strong when everything went wrong
Through it all we held our bond / Kept close kept movin' on
You brought a special meaning to my life
Chorus
Momma used to hold me / When I broke down and cried
Momma told me son never lye
Always there through thick and thin / never changing with the wind
Growing up with momma by my side
Bridge
For as long as I remember / you've been there for me
My candle that always burns a flame
Verse
Momma please know your love / stays with me through life
Thank you from the bottom of my heart
Open up a new book / turn the pages with my wife
Momma you're right there by my side
Chorus
Momma used to hold me / When I broke down and cried
Momma told me son never lye
Always there through thick and thin / never changing with the wind
Growing up with momma by my side
Lead
Chorus
She's the one that used to hold me / When I broke down and cried
Momma told me son never lye
Always there through thick and thin / never changing with the wind
Growing up with momma... by my side
