MOMMA WAS MAN ENOUGH FOR ME
Written By: Jerry Blackburn / Ron Stevens
If It weren?t for a picture, I never would?ve seen my dad
He left when I was born, guess a family wasn?t in his plans
But momma always filled his shoes doing what a daddy should do
She did the work of two, giving twice as much love?
Some thought she needed a man to help her make ends meet
That a single mom couldn?t teach what a man could teach
But they didn?t know my momma?s strength, she could do about anything
soft and gentle, tough when she had to be, momma was man enough for me?
She taught me what no meant, how to catch and how to throw
To work hard and be honest, that you reap what you sow
She said when problems come learn to face them, never run
She taught me what a lady was, but most of all how to love?
Some thought she needed a man to help her make ends meet
That a single mom couldn?t teach what a man could teach
But they didn?t know my momma?s strength, she could do about anything
Soft and gentle, tough when she had to be, momma was man enough for me?
She was a teacher, a preacher, my biggest cheerleader
She was a banker, she was my anchor always there when I needed her?
Some thought she needed a man to help her make ends meet
That a single mom couldn?t teach what a man could teach
But they didn?t know my momma?s strength, she could do about anything
Soft and gentle, tough when she had to be, momma was man enough for me?
Tough when she had to be , momma was man enough for me?
