Lyrics

I got hugs and kisses from my mom
I read her letter today
I went away to fight
to lead a different life
I got and kisses from my mom

She raised me since I was a little boy
Let me make all kinds of noise
Got me my first drum
a guitar I could strum

I got hugs and kisses from my Mom

they all gathered round and I read it out loud
All the guys were really really proud

She wrote she loves me and misses me so
and at the bottom she signed X's and O's
They all tell take care of myself
I got hugs and Kisses from my Mom

OOOOOOOOOO

They all tell me take care of my self

I got hugs and kisses from My Mom
I read her letter today
Told me all about my loved ones all back home
They all tel me take care of myself

Told me all about my brother and sisters
And how is my baby one year old
Been along time since I held her in my arms
I got hugs and kisses from her to
I miss my family and Wife
I wish I could be there with my friends

I got hugs and kisses from my mom
I read her letter today
She said she loves and she says to take care
I got hugs and kisses from them all

they all tell me take care of myself
