This will be a duet with t'onna singing the choruses. T'onna's performance is key to the song because it represents the underlying theme of the song. this is a traditional country song in the purest sense, in that it looks inside the feelings of a foster child, who when she is of legal age, goes in search of her biological mother. this story is based on a 17 year old girl named, marilyn, who many years ago babysat for me and my wife. marilyn was a foster child and spent her childhood and teenage years living in "several" different foster homes. at the "legal" age of 18, she moved out on her own and later married a policeman. "momma" is presented from both the foster child's perspective, and the mother's justification for giving up her child. one think i can tell you both, there are millions of foster children around. some are foster children right now, and others have had the foster child experience, so there is an audience for this song.
