I have no idea, but its reality.
Lyrics
The Mother Rory Ruff, ASCAP They’d been together for 15 years The most perfect couple you’d ever seen They bore 2 children with one on the way And he was due this spring They went to church, never missed a Sunday And they lived by the word Come 5am on Monday, he was off to work Supportin the family, hopin to buy a new house someday He’d tell his wife, nothing ever comes easy Especially in times like these He’d tell himself we got two But soon there’ll be three And right then he hit his knees (Chorus) Please Lord give me strength to go on Integrity to find my way I’ve gotten weak and I need to be strong Got a little one comin any day I’ve always done what I know is right And for my family I’ll put up a fight Workin 60 hours cause they’re countin on me But Lord give me strength cause it’s killin me (2nd Verse) Two weeks later in a little hospital room They sat there waitin with tear filled eyes for the doctors news All those long hours had finally taken their toll They didn’t see it comin as the car went off the road Now a mother of 3 must do it all And when she got the news To her knees she did fall (Chorus) Lord give me strength to go on Help me persevere now That the children’s daddy is gone I know the hurt the kids will go through Cause I lost my daddy in 72’ Two years later took a job at the grocery store I was 13 and momma couldn’t work anymore Lord all I ask is help me to survive Let me raise my children and see them grow up right.
