jeff bates - mama was alot like jesus lyrics
mama was a lot like jesus
written by: tob ctosby/kelly shiver/ray stephenson (bmi/ascap)
i’ve seen her give her last dollars to a stranger on the street
and do without a dress she wantedso we would have enough to eat
when the ladies at the garden club looked down their noses at her
i watched her turn the other cheek without a bitter word
chorus
mama was a lot like jesus
the way she lived and loved
a blessed sent from heaven up above
she would pray for our forgiveness
and sacrifice for us
mama was a lot like jesus
she could stretch a bag of groceries for two weeks to keep us fed
she could take an old potted plant and raise it from the dead
her words were like a healing touch when we had a broken heart
and when i wrestled with the devil, shel led me through the dark
repeat chorus
i’ve got my daddy’s eyes, i’ve got my daddy’s hair
but, i hope my mama’s heart is inside me somewhere
(’cause) mama was a lot like jesus
the way she lived and loved
a blessed sent from heaven up above
she would pray for our forgiveness
and sacrifice for us
mama was a lot like jesus
my mama was a lot like jesus
