Mama’s Truth

(mmmmm) (yeah) She sat me down upon the porch that evening

And watched the setting sun begin to fade

She told me stories of the hard-won seasons

And every single promise that she made

Oh, mamas don't lie

No, they don't hide the truth away

They look you in the

eye

And tell you everything's okay

Oh, mamas don't lie

(never do,

yeah)

She said the world would try to break your spirit

And spin you in a web of fancy words

But keep your faith and always try to hear it

The truest song that you have ever heard

Oh, mamas don't lie

No, they don't hide the truth away

They look you in the

eye

And tell you everything's okay

Oh, mamas don't lie

(never do,

yeah)

She told me the truth (always did) No,

they don't lie (mmm-mmm)
