Taught me how to be man
And you did it on your own
You gave us everything you had
Let me tell you it was more than you'll ever know
And in my darkest days
You knew exactly what to say
So what can I say
To the woman who's given me everything
How can I repay when you've made me who I am
What can I say what can I ever do to make you understand my Mama
You mean everything to me
We always talk about that mountain
Beautiful, Strong, wild and free
Every time I think about it, oh
It's everything you've always been to me
And as you face your darkest days
I'm not sure what I should say
So what can I say
To the woman who's given me everything
How can I repay when you've made me who I am
What can I say what could I ever do to make you understand my Mama
You mean everything
You taught me right from wrong
Showed me how to be strong
So I would never lose my way
To be proud of I am
Know when it's time to make a stand
And the only thing that matters most of all is love
So what can I say
To the woman who's given me everything
How can I repay when you've made me who I am
What can I say what could I ever do to make you understand my Mama
You mean everything to me
You mean everything to me
