She's a giver of another chance
Knows ever hair on my hard head
She'll give you anything, all you gotta do is ask
Swear she knew everything I did
And that Bible's gone with her everywhere she's been
You hardly ever see it, but you don't wanna see her mad
She's holdin' it down down here
Oh, but when she gets up there

I'll bet she'll walk them streets of gold with a silver metal
And while the good Lord comes back down to get us, she'll fill in
I ain't been yet, but I've got a glimpse of Heaven
'Cause mama ain't Jesus, but she's a close second

I kept her up many a night
Prayin' I'd make it home alright
Sometimes it was tough but it was always love
She ain't scared of anything
Got that from 1 John 4:18
I didn't know it either, she made me look it up

And I'll bet she'll walk them streets of gold with a silver metal
And while the good Lord comes back down to get us, she'll fill in
I ain't been yet, but I've got a glimpse of Heaven
'Cause mama ain't Jesus, but she's a close second (No, mama ain't Jesus)

And when that trumpet sounds
She'll be the first one with a crown

And I'll bet she'll walk them streets of gold with a silver metal
And while the good Lord comes back down to get us, she'll fill in (she'll fill in)
I ain't been yet, but I've got a glimpse of Heaven
'Cause mama ain't Jesus, but she's a close second (no)
Mama ain't Jesus, but she's a close second (mm)

She's a giver of another chance
Knows ever hair on my hard head
