Mama Lyrics

Oooh

Twas a long way coming over that mountain

But I'm here now, I am here now

Right by her side where everything is right

Because of her love, Mama's sweet love

Casting my worries to the river

And my fears to the wind

Cause Mama's only got something good going

When she tells me that she loves me

More than I'll ever know

I know it's true

And that is why

I'm so glad to be back home

Twas a long way coming over that mountain

But I'm here now, I am here now

Right by her side where everything is right

Because of her love, Mama's sweet love

I have no care about the weather

For there is sunshine in her smile

And that makes even the darkest day seem mild

And when she tells me that she loves me

More than I'll ever know

I know it's true

And that is why

I'm so glad to be back home

Twas a long way coming over that mountain

But I'm here now, I am here now

Right by her side where everything is right

Because of her love, Mama's sweet love

She worked hard to make home a place of rest

And now that I'm away, she writes letters to send her best

Oh, Shenandoah I have found my way to you

And it's such a sweet thing to be back where I formed my youth

Oooh

Twas a long way coming over that mountain

But I'm here now, I am here now

Right by her side where everything is right

Because of her love, Mama's sweet love

Because of her love, Mama's sweet love
