Momma’s Legacy

Lyrics

[Verse 1] There's a woman made of grace and grit Who gave her heart to all of it Married young to her third-grade love Sixty-eight years, hand in glove She'd say "Lord, love a duck" and laugh Then get back up and walk her path [Chorus] Momma, you were strength and light Faith that held us through the night Anything worth doing, you did well Every story yours to tell Love so strong it still remains Momma, running through our veins [Verse 2] Four kids raised with tender hands Laurie, Dru, Rick, David's biggest fan Back to school, became an RN Showed us how to rise again Forty-five years, an angel here on earth Teaching us what love is worth [Chorus] Momma, you were strength and light Faith that held us through the night Anything worth doing, you did well Every story yours to tell Love so strong it still remains Momma, running through our veins [Bridge] When the world fell apart, you carried on For your baby boy, you stayed strong Through every heartbreak, every storm Your love kept all of us warm [Verse 3] Bob Seger spinning, flowers in bloom Shopping trips and afternoons Never missed a birthday, not a one Class act 'til the day was done I’m so proud of my Mom, it was an honor and privilege to be her and my Dad’s daughter, beautiful, disciplined, faithful through [Chorus] Momma, you were strength and light Faith that held us through the night Anything worth doing, you did well Every story yours to tell Love so strong it still remains Running through our veins [Outro] Love conquers all, you showed us how We carry you with us now Lord, love a duck, I love you more You're with us evermore
