They say home is where the heart is
Why did I ever leave?
Firstborn and the first to spread my wings
Don't you worry about me, momma, I'm not goin' too far
You're in the songs I'm playin' on the radio
They keep me close to your heart
When I hear the piano play, the beginnin' of the dance
These tears fall down like Tennessee rain
Brings you near once again
Your love holds me together
You're my rock and you've made me better
Dear mom, you're wise and strong
You're the heart of a country song
Yeah, you're wild like tequila
But you're holy like a prayer
I swear your voice sounds like three chords in the truth
When you tell me you'll always be there
When I hear the piano play, the beginnin' of the dance
These tears fall down like Tennessee rain
Brings you near once again
Your love holds me together
You're my rock and you've made me better
Dear mom, you're wise and strong
You're the heart of a country song
When I hear the piano play, the beginnin' of the dance
These tears fall down like Tennessee rain
Brings you near once again
Your love holds me together
You're my rock and you've made me better
Dear mom, you're wise and strong
You're the heart of a country song
Yeah
