Anthony Russo - Hey Mama lyrics

Hey there Mama, how ya been?
I know it's been a while
Since we got to talk
I'm doing awesome and I hope
That you are too

Hey there Mama, how's ya job?
I don't ask often, I know that's odd
'Cause it's the reason that I'm able to
Do the things I wanna do
Hey there Mama, how's your soul?
I hope it's shining, I hope it glows
Times are changing, I know I've grown
But there's still lots of life to live
Hey there Mama, thanks a lot
For showing me love, for showing me God
I know Grandma would be so proud
She's up in heaven smiling down

Thanks for the lullabies
Thanks for the Bandaids
Thanks for making me eat raisins
And cranberries and green stuff
And not getting mad when you
Caught me with green stuff
And just knowing that
That's what teenage does
And thank you
Thank you for never letting me sleep in, and
Showing me there's more to
Life than just friends
And
Family may not make it there to the end
But they'll always be there in the end
And thank you for letting me roam
And learn on my own
You know I always find my way home
'Cause I can't stray that far from Mama
No no

This one's for the mamas
This one's for the mamas, yeah yeah
One time for the mamas
One time for the mamas, yeah yeah

Hey there Mama, how ya been?
I know it's been a while
Since we got to talk
I'm doing awesome and I hope
That you are too

Hey there Mama understand it
We can't take this life for granted
Every breath I breathe with passion
That's the life I wanna live
To all the Mamas who left to soon
I hope your families know the truth
That you'll be with them through every move
'Til the day you see them again

This one's for the mamas
This one's for the mamas, yeah yeah
One time for the mamas
One time for the mamas, yeah yeah

Hey there Mama, how ya been?
I know it's been a while
Since we got to talk
I'm doing awesome and I hope
That you are too
