Mama Don't Cry
Julie Roberts
Mama don't cry, don't you worry about me
I'm a little bit scared
but I'm gonna be all right
I've got the letter that you gave me
folded in my pocket
I've gotta feeling like
I need to read it maybe one more time
And let it ease my mind
It's a wide, wide world
looking out this window
Thirty thousand feet
above the ground I grew up on
Just a small town girl
out here chasing rainbows
Doing what I can to stand up on my own
You taught me well,
you raised me right
So Mama don't cry
I remember standing
at the end of the driveway
Looking down that highway
wondering how far it goes
And I can feel your hand
resting on my shoulder
Hear you saying, baby,
don't forget when you're grown
That road will always lead you home
It's a wide, wide world
looking out this window
Thirty thousand feet
above the ground I grew up on
Just a small town girl
out here chasing rainbows
Doing what I can to stand up on my own
You taught me well,
you raised me right
So Mama don't cry
It's a wide, wide world
looking out this window
Thirty thousand feet
above the ground I grew up on
Just a small town girl
out here chasing rainbows
Doing what I can to stand up on my own
You taught me well,
you raised me right
So Mama don't cry
