I remember Mama

So loving, so kind

She knew how to ease a troubled mind

Firm but fair

I’ll never forget her tender loving care

I remember Mama

A southern belle you see

She instilled the best in me

She showed she loved me so much

With her tender touch

I remember Mama

A woman of substance

She taught me to strive for excellence

She taught me to pray

Each and every day

I remember Mama

Her love rang true

She saw me through

Discipline and guidance she gave

The way she did pave

I remember Mama

Her love and legacy I carry with me

From now until enternity
