mama's cooking - james barker band lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
any given night
you could set your clock
daddy’s home from work
5:30 on the dot
brother’s in his room
and sister’s on the phone saying god knows what
and mama’s cookin’

[verse 2]
like we had assigned seats
sittin’ down to say grace
between “honey, pass the peas”
and “honey, how’s your grades?”
learned a lot about life
and how to finish what you put on your plate
over mama’s cookin’

[chorus]
every night, our lives stood still
same conversation, a different meal
at the time, all i thought we were makin’ was dirty dishes
but if there’s one thing i know
it ain’t about what was on that stove
it was the moments we had that i want just so bad to revisit
and these days, ’round six o’clock, you can find me lookin’
for mama’s cookin’

[verse 3]
i’ve been around the world
and i’ve broke bread with enough
to know somethin’ ain’t as good
when it ain’t grown on the same ground that you grew up
and there’s a hurt in my heart
but a head on my shoulders and it’s all because of
mama’s cooking

[chorus]
every night, our lives stood still
same conversation, a different meal
at the time, all i thought we were makin’ was dirty dishes
but if there’s one thing i know
it ain’t about what was on that stove
it was the moments we had that i want just so bad to revisit
and these days, ’round six o’clock, you can find me lookin’
for mama’s cookin’

[chorus]
and i thank god for those days
honey baked ham and heated debates
the lessons i learned along the way in that kitchen
but if there’s one thing i know
it ain’t about what was on that stove
it was the moments we had that i want just so bad to revisit
and i’m a product of all that stuff i took in
eatin’ mama’s cookin’
eatin’ mama’s cookin’
