Mama, the one that wipes the
Noses and the tears
Mama, the one who keeps the
Peace and calms the fears
She irons and washes clothes
She cooks, she cleans, she sews
She's good about resolving family drama
A friend, our guiding light
She's Daddy's loving wife
A constant in our lives, Mama

The one that never sleeps 'til all's in bed
The one that never eats 'til all are fed
Her never ending love
Her gentle caring touch
She never asks for much, Mama

Oh, Mama
The one that wipes the noses and the tears
Oh, Mama, the one who keeps the peace
And calms the fears
She irons and washes clothes
She cooks, she cleans, she sews
An angel, Heaven knows, Mama

Mama, you will always be
The very core and heart of me
And even though you're gone
I see your love in everything
When I look in my children's eyes
It makes me think and realize
What you've done to enrich my life
I hope I can do the same

Oh, Mama
The one that wipes the noses and the tears
Oh, Mama, the one who keeps the peace
And calms the fears
She irons and washes clothes
She cooks, she cleans, she sews
An angel, Heaven knows, Mama
A friend, our guiding light
She's Daddy's loving wife
A constant in our lives, Mama

An angel in our lives, sweet Mama
Oh, Mama, mmhmm i love you, Mama
