Ann Marie Lyrics by American Opera

Your Songs

0

Well my mom grew up right in between her four sisters and ten brothers, too...
And after high school she went to work doing what her dad used to...
Well she got married, started a family, raised us kids all on her own
And now her daughter is raising up a family of her own...
She gave us courage, she gave us family
She'd give the shoes right off her feet...
She'd light a dark room as she'd dance and sing around to Motown tunes...
And when I enlisted to join the service she did not stall or hesitate
Or keep me guessing, she just gave me her blessing...
Saying, "It's what he wants to do..."
Slowly, Heaven took her slowly
But she marched brave and boldly...
In sickness remained holy
Heaven, were you lonely?
Well Mama, I still hear your voice and I still hear your laugh
And I hope you're proud of your boy and I wish you could come back...
And I will live everyday to try to make you proud
And we'll see each other someday, someway, somehow...
You gave us courage, you gave us family
You'd give the shoes right off your feet...
