Only Mama Could Fix Lyrics

There's a crack in the sky, rain hits the ground,

Feels like the whole world is wearin' me down.

Bills on the table, weight on my chest,

Tryin' my best, but I've got nothin' left.

Sometimes there were only things Mama could fix,

Like a shattered heart or a night lost in it.

She could chase away storms with the sound of her voice,

Turn pain into prayers like I had a choice.

Yeah, sometimes there were only things Mama could fix.

Skinned-up knees, my first real goodbye,

Hands over my ears when I just had to cry.

She'd hold me close, hum my favorite tune,

Make the dark feel safe with the light of the moon.

Sometimes there were only things Mama could fix,

Like a lost little soul too tired to resist.

She could pull me from shadows with just her embrace,

Remind me I'd never be too far from grace.

Yeah, sometimes there were only things Mama could fix.

Years roll by, now I stand on my own,

But when I stumble, her love still shows.

I hear her words in the back of my mind,

"Baby, you'll make it, just give it some time."

Sometimes there were only things Mama could fix,

Like the weight of the world when nothing else fits.

She could carry my hurt, she could soften the pain,

With a love so fierce, it still feels the same.

Yeah, sometimes there were only things Mama could fix.

So when the world feels heavy, I know just what to do,

Pick up the phone… and hear "Baby, I got you."
