Lyrics
Three kids in her minivan
Two for soccer, I did band
No man to lend a hand
No problem
She did it...
Three hungry mouths to feed
A buncha bed time books to read
No time for her own needs
No problem
She did it...
Second thoughts... not a one...
Momma always got it done.
She...dragged us off to school
Taught us smokin' wasn't cool,
Grounded me for breakin' rules
You name it... she did it...
Scraped to buy my first guitar
Promised me that I'd go far
Answered every late call
For us kids... she did it all
The Sunday after Senior Prom
She waited up for us 'til dawn
Just to teach us right from wrong
Nothing got past her
I learned to keep it true
Aced her course in makin' do
Me and her we muddled through
A thousand disasters
Now I fly without a net
It's that tough love... I can't forget
(Chorus)
I lost her young...and though I try
To shed regret...it just won't die
I only wish I'd had the time... to say...
Good job...
Good bye...
She...dragged us off to school
Taught us smokin' wasn't cool,
Grounded me for breakin' rules
You name it... she did it...
Scraped to buy my first guitar
Promised me that I'd go far
Hitched me to a risin' star
You name it...she did it
She gave us all she had
Raised us up without a dad
Answered every late call
For us kids... what she did
Was everything...everything
For this kid...She did it all
She did it all....
