Mothers

Mothers, show your sons how to treat a lady 'cause you got
Sons growing up to be men that grow up or not
They could be heading on a train
With that old school of throught

If you don't stop and let 'em know that
Some boys will stay boys and some boys become men
Some men wull never break the chain
They'll go breaking hearts again

Mothers, do you best to raise 'em up
Try not to hold 'em down
They'll come around
Mothers, let 'em go
You can let 'em fall
And if they hit the ground

They'll figure it out and
Sons learn the world
From their fathers, they'll get even farther
If they learn how to treat a lady, love a girl
From their mother
From their mother

Mothers
Tell their fathers it's okay to let 'em cry
And being strong's letting somebody inside
Lets let generation's fall away from pride
Don't you think it's time 'cause

Some boys will stay boys if you tell 'em to hold it in
And history will just repeat itself again
Mothers, do you best to raise 'em up
Try not to hold 'em down
They'll come around

Mothers, let 'em go
You can let 'em fall
And if they hit the ground
They'll figure it out and
Sons learn the world

From their fathers, they'll get even farther
If they learn how to treat a lady, love a girl
From their mother
Something 'bout a son and a mother
Ain't like no other love like a

Mothers
Do your best to raise 'em up
Try not to hold 'em down
They'll come around

Mothers
Let 'em go
You can let 'em fall
And if they hit the ground
They'll figure it out and
Sons learn the world

From their fathers, they'll get even farther
If they learn how to treat a lady, love a girl
From their mother
