mama was a lot like jesus - jeff bates lyrics

Loading...

i’ve seen her give her last five dollars
to a stranger on the street
an’ do without a dress she wanted
so we’d have enough to eat

and when the ladies at the garden club
looked down their nose at her
i watched her turn the other cheek
without one bitter word

mama was a lot like jesus, the way she lived an’ loved
a blessing sent from heaven up above
she would pray for our forgiveness and sacrifice for us
mama was a lot like jesus

she could stretch a bag of groceries
for two weeks to keep us fed
an’ she could take an old brown potted plant
an’ raise it from the dead

an’ her words were like a healin’ touch
when we had a broken heart
and when i wrestled with the devil
she led me through the dark

’cause mama was a lot like jesus, the way she lived an’ loved
a blessin’ sent from heaven up above
she would pray for our forgiveness and sacrifice for us
mama was a lot like jesus

i’ve got my daddy’s eyes
i’ve got my daddy’s hair
but i hope my mama’s heart
is inside me somewhere

’cause mama was a lot like jesus, the way she lived an’ loved
a blessin’ sent from heaven up above
she would pray for our forgiveness and sacrifice for us
mama was a lot like jesus, my mama was a lot like jesus
