Take the sunshine of her smile
Add the wisdom of her heart
And in just a little while
Shadows will all depart
I learned about her when I was small
How she’d come running when I would fall
Even at that age
Somehow I knew
Mama’d know what to do
When I was heartsick and when I cried
Who’d always be there right by my side?
Who could I count on to get me through?
Mama’d know what to do
Take the sunshine of her smile
Add the wisdom of her heart
And in just a little while
Shadows will all depart
All of the love that she gave to me
Will always live in my memory
My whole life long
I’ll tell myself when things go wrong
Mama’d know what to do
Take the sunshine of her smile
Add the wisdom of her heart
And in just a little while
Shadows will all depart
All of the love that she gave to me
Will always live in my memory
My whole life long
I’ll tell myself when things go wrong
Mama’d know what to do
Mama’d Know What to Do was written by Phil Zeller.
