Lyrics

I remember when my shoes, used, to fall off your feet
Now you wearing them as you’re running out of the door
And people say, you look and act just like me
I’ll admit, there’s some things too hard to ignore

I cried when I heard your first cry
And we’ve been tied together this whole time

These unbreakable connections to your heart
Aren’t just little things, they’re my mama strings
they’ve been going strong right from the start
Yeah they’re everything, between you and me
When this world tries to knock you down, I’ll always be around
To lift you up, I’ll give you all my strength
We won’t fall apart or break, no matter how much hell you raise
You can count on me, and my mama strings

I’d like to think that God knew the gap in my soul
Would be perfectly filled when I brought you home
we grow together, lean on each other
Loving you comes naturally

These unbreakable connections to your heart
Aren’t just little things, they’re my mama strings
they’ve been going strong right from the start
Yeah they’re everything, between you and me
When this world tries to knock you down, I’ll always be around
To lift you up, I’ll give you all my strength
We won’t fall apart or break, no matter how much hell you raise
You can count on me, and my mama strings

I hope you’re blessed to get this kind of love
you get a daughter and a son
I hope I’m here to watch you shine your light
Cuz then you’ll know how I see you Through my eyes

These unbreakable connections to your heart
Aren’t just little things, they’re my mama strings
And we’ll always be together no matter where you are
Cuz you’re everything to me
