Ure Man - Momma Meant Lyrics

Mama Meant...
Thinking back to years ago
Always going to and fro
How it all seemed so happy as I was growing up
Now being away from home
Out in the world and on my own
Thinking about my mama and what she meant to me

Mama meant learning right and knowing wrong
Mama meant harmony in every song
Mama meant a coat on a cold day
Mama meant always going the right way
Mama meant being nice and asking please
Mama meant Sunday praying on your knees
Mama meant helping other people out
Mama meant home

Thinking back to years ago
What I did and where I'd go
How it all seemed so happy as I was growing up
Now so far away from home
A soldier on another shore
Thinking about my mama and what she meant to me

Thinking back to years ago
What I did and where I'd go
How it all seemed so happy as I was growing up
Now driving to the nursing home
To see her now so very old
Thinking about her younger and what she means to me

So many times we take family for granted
So many times we think we've got all the time in the world
So many times we talk about plans that never happen
So maybe we should take this time to make sure
