Lyrics
SHE GAVE EVERYTHING FOR ME
Writers Ed Bentley &Gail Wasserman

Verse 1
When she started to show, she let him know
Shock of his life, what he heard her say
He said - OMG, what can we do
She said, don't you worry, It ain't up to you
So they stayed in touch, a small check each month
She made a choice, to be mom and dad
Raised me alone, made a good home
Didn't have much, what we needed we had
Chorus
She was my mama and my papa
Life was hard, never, came easy
Working all day, sometimes at night
Giving her all, to make my life right
She gave everything
Yeah she gave everything for me
verse 2
My thirteenth birthday, I was blown away
In walked my dad, mama's birthday surprise
She cried I'm sorry, I kept him away
We all stood there, tears in our eyes
Today is much better, dad and I get together
Now I have a family, a son of my own
Thankful for dad, good times we've have had
But I won't forget, how mama raised me alone
Last Chorus
But mama was my mama and my papa
Etc....
Tag
She gave everything, mama gave everything
Yeah, she gave everything for me
