A special kind of beauty and grace
Never leave the house without a smile on my face
I fight for all that's good and just
With a kind heart anyone can trust
And if you ask me why I'm this way...I'll just look at you and say
I got it from my mama
It's a tough act to follow, you know...
With a fiery spirit and a gentle hand
Joybell ringin' as loud as it can
I got it from my mama
I love the Lord and people too
Bring the sunshine and speak the truth
Some say there's nothin' I can't do
Well I second guess, but so do you
And if you ask me why I'm this way...I'll just look at you and say
I got it from my mama
It's a tough act to follow, you know...
With a fiery spirit and a gentle hand
Joybell ringin' as loud as it can
I got it from my mama
Determination in my genes
Yeah, she passed that down to me
Made me believe that love's the best accessory
The kind of woman I hope to be
I got it from my mama
It's a tough act to follow, you know...
With a fiery spirit and a gentle hand
Joybell ringin' as loud as it can
I got it from my mama
