Mama, you're my daddy too I have never known a man Any stronger than you
Gave me breakfast every morning Got me off to school Then you'd run and catch the 'cross town bus To go and do your day job and provide for us
Come home tired and weary Sometimes barely able But you always manage To put supper on the table
Mama, you're my daddy too I have never known a man Any stronger than you
Daddy left us long time ago Before I can recall Ask me what he's done for me? Nothing at all
We wouldn't recognize each other If I walked by an old avenue Thank God, all dads are not like him But then all moms are not like you, oh Mama
People sometimes think that it's a shame When they ask me what's my daddy's name And I say, "Mama, my daddy's name is Mama" And I say it with a real sense of pride
You've been my doctor, been my nurse Through my better and my worse You've always been by my side
Oh Mama, you're my daddy too I have never known a man Any stronger than you
Gave me wisdom, gave me knowledge Gave me every tool Let me know I don't know everything But I'm nobody's fool
The main thing that you gave me Was life's golden rule Taught me how to love somebody I love you, Mama And I'll always be thankful for you
And I don't ever want a child of mine To ever have to say Mama, you're my daddy too You're my daddy tooTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
