Yeah, I know, my mama loves me
I know
I know
I know 'cause she's always tellin' me so
She pushed me out into this world
She stood me up on two feet
She put words into my mouth
And ideas in my head
She boxed my compass
Then let me sail away, secure
In who I had become
I’m sure, cause my mama loves me
Don’t matter what I do
Or where I go
She's just gonna keep on lovin’ me
I know
I know
Each breath
Each stumble
Each gain
Every one
She’ll be lovin’ just the same
To measure a man, they say
You walk a mile in his shoes
But to know a woman, a mother
You need to love a life with her heart
I know this now
'Cause I'm the one pushin'
Pushin' my own kicking and crying
Center of the universe
Up and out
And into the charge of days
Not all of which are gonna go his ways
But the love, mmm hmm
I know the love is gonna be there
Now I know
Now I know
‘Cause I’m the one who’s sayin’ so
