My Mother's Hands Lyrics

My mother's hands

Picking off the chicken from the bone

Onions dancing in the pan

My mother's hands

My mother's hands

Mandolin picking tremolo

Back and forth shimmy on the dance floor

My mother's hands

My mother's hands

I got to borrow them today

Cooking up my mother's chicken soup

Celery poppin' in the pan

Just like her mother taught her to

Now I get to pass along this bowl of love to you

With my mother's hands

With my mother's hands
