Mom lyrics - Garth Brooks

A little baby told God, "Hey, I'm kinda scared

Don't really know if I want to go down there

From here it looks like a little blue ball

That's a great big place and I'm so small"

"Why can't I just stay here with you

Did I make you mad, don't you want me to?"

God said, "Oh, child, of course I do

But there's somebody special waiting for you"

[Chorus:]

So, hush now baby don't you cry

'Cause there's someone down there waiting

Whose only goal in life

Is makin' sure you're always gonna be alright

A loving angel, tender, tough and strong

It's almost time to go and meet your mom

You'll never have a better friend

Or a warmer touch to tuck you in

She'll kiss your bruises, your bumps and scrapes

And anytime you hurt, her heart's gonna break

[Chorus]

Now, when she's talking to you

Make sure you listen close

'Cause she's gonna teach you everything

You'll ever need to know

Like how to mind your manners

To love and laugh and dream

And she'll put you on the path

That'll bring you back to Me

So, hush now little baby don't you cry

'Cause there's someone down there waiting

Whose only goal in life

Is making sure you're always gonna be alright

A loving angel, tender, tough and strong

Come on child

It's time to meet your mom
