《Mama Was A Lot Like Jesus》歌词

[00:00:00] Mama Was A Lot Like Jesus - Jeff Bates

[00:00:14] I've seen her give her last five dollars

[00:00:17] To a stranger on the street

[00:00:21] An' do without a dress she wanted

[00:00:24] So we'd have enough to eat

[00:00:28] And when the ladies at the garden club

[00:00:31] Looked down their nose at her

[00:00:35] I watched her turn the other cheek

[00:00:39] Without one bitter word

[00:00:44] Mama was a lot like Jesus

[00:00:47] The way she lived an' loved:

[00:00:51] A blessing sent from Heaven up above

[00:00:58] She would pray for our forgiveness

[00:01:01] And sacrifice for us:

[00:01:07] Mama was a lot like Jesus

[00:01:17] She could stretch a bag of groceries

[00:01:20] For two weeks to keep us fed

[00:01:24] An' she could take an old brown potted plant

[00:01:28] An' raised it from the dead

[00:01:31] An' her words were like a healin' touch

[00:01:34] When we had a broken heart

[00:01:38] And when I wrestled with the devil

[00:01:42] She led me through the dark

[00:01:47] 'Cause Mama was a lot like Jesus

[00:01:50] The way she lived an' loved:

[00:01:54] A blessin' sent from Heaven up above

[00:02:01] She would pray for our forgiveness

[00:02:04] And sacrifice for us:

[00:02:10] Mama was a lot like Jesus

[00:02:16] I've got my Daddy's eyes;

[00:02:19] I've got my Daddy's hair

[00:02:24] But I hope my Mama's heart

[00:02:27] Is inside me somewhere

[00:02:33] 'Cause Mama was a lot like Jesus

[00:02:36] The way she lived an' loved:

[00:02:40] A blessin' sent from Heaven up above

[00:02:47] She would pray for our forgiveness

[00:02:50] And sacrifice for us:

[00:02:55] Mama was a lot like Jesus

[00:03:02] My Mama was a lot like Jesus
