Lyrics Mama's Girl - EmiSunshine

I want to go back to when I was ten
Walk through that Georgia sand
Read the stories that she used to write
Feel her hands tuck me in at night

Go to church in my Sunday dress
Twirl around and then fall down
Feel the heat as the sun gets high
Sit with her and rest a while

You know I wouldn't mind picking beans
The long mornings planting seeds
Garden rows being oh so long
I'd help her hoe just to hear her songs

I want to go back to when I was ten
Walk through that Georgia sand
Read the stories that she used to write
Feel her hands tuck me in at night

Times were hard but they're harder here
Since she's gone I'm a stranger here
No one loves you like Mama does
She's the blanket that covers you up

If I could just go back in time
I know the moments in my mind
I'd grab hold and squeeze real tight
I wouldn't let go I'd be strong and fight

I want to go back to when I was ten
Walk through that Georgia sand
Read the stories that she used to write
Feel her hands tuck me in at night

But nothing last here and this old world
And you can't stay just a mama's girl
She taught me enough to get me through life
And she'll be waiting on the other side

I want to go back to when I was ten
Walk through that Georgia sand
Read the stories that she used to write
Feel her hands took me in at night
