Lyrics
[verse]
You worked the double shifts and never once complained
You kept the lights on for us, kept the roof from any rain
Every sacrifice you made, I carry with me still
You gave me every reason and you always will
[chorus]
Hey mama, this one's for you
Every dream I'm living, you're the reason it came true
Hey mama, I hope you know
Everything I built, you planted it to grow
[verse]
You believed in me before I even had a single plan
You told me I could be whatever kind of woman or man
Now I'm standing in the light because you carried me so far
Hey mama, you're the reason I became a star
[chorus]
Hey mama, this one's for you
Every dream I'm living, you're the reason it came true
Hey mama, I hope you know
Everything I built, you planted it to grow
[bridge]
No matter how far I travel, no matter what I do
Every good thing in my life traces back to you
[chorus]
Hey mama, this one's for you
Every dream I'm living, you're the reason it came true
Hey mama, I hope you know
Everything I built, you planted it to grow
