Lyrics
She was a vision of truth a leader legend goddess mother in the puddins the proof
And she don't take sh** from no one and she better not catch you messin round with her son
She gave me the world I gave her a hard time I couldn't see past the next ditch session so blind. When the wheels fell off she could put it back together again at no cost.
Irish and proud from the borough of Brooklyn she learned tough at a young age hangin out on the roofs and
Finally moved to a flat plain met my pops got as job got a house and then I came
Bedtime stories Hill Street Blues growin up on 43rd and dealing with the crew
Built a ramp in the backyard she cooked dinner made tea and took care of us all
Son, you best come inside you been playing all day long
I made your favorite we won't wait for dad to get home
It'll be just you and me and after dinner we can watch tv and she said
I got to see you grow and I'm proud of the man you've become
Through the cemetery breeze under the mossy trees
by the reservoir of hope and dreams she says to me
Life seems cruel but it'll be ok
I can't quite grasp that you're really gone a poem a song something that shows that we all belong
Mothers are the greatest gift to a son
Genevieve asks if we'll see Mimi again
I smile and say one day at the pearly gates
She'll wait with butterscotch in her hands
Through the cemetery breeze under the mossy trees
by the reservoir of hope and dreams she says to me
Life is gonna be ok
One day you're gonna dig a hole
Bury your loved ones just to...
Let them go
Son, you best come inside you been playing all day long
I made your favorite we won't wait for dad to get home
It'll be just you and me and after dinner we can watch tv and she said
I got to see you grow and I'm proud of the man you've become
