|
Me and Jimmy Crowder and a single cigarette |
|
Crouched down in a stall out in the barn |
|
Three puffs later we were sick as we could get |
|
Prayin we'd get better before we got home |
|
She saw me comin through the back door screen |
|
I knew the minute that she looked at me |
|
Chorus |
|
Mama knows, Mama knows |
|
Sometimes I think she's got a window to my soul |
|
Mama knows, Mama knows |
|
Even when I think it doesn't show |
|
Mama knows |
|
Me and Becky Johnson ankle-deep in ocean waves |
|
Pants rolled up and hearts out on our sleeves |
|
Both needin more than either one of us could get |
|
That first love left the sweetest memory |
|
Fifteen and shy, didn't tell a soul |
|
How is it Mama never has to be told |
|
Chorus |
|
I wasn't home when Mama passed away |
|
I didn't get to say I love you |
|
But I've got this feelin |
|
Chorus until end |
