I'm a mama's boy

yes, I'm a mama's boy
no one else could make me feel more loved
than when my mother held me close
I never felt safer than when I lay my head in her lap
and she gently stroked my brow
I never felt stronger, prouder, braver or secure
than when she smiled her approval
for something I had done
no sweeter song was sung by anyone
than by her voice
I would never feel worse
than by her simple look
telling me I was wrong
some people would say
oh, he 's a mama's boy
and mean to deride
but put it on a badge
so I can wear it
for nothing is better than any food
my mama made
and I feel so content when I could sit beside her
next to my mother and hold her close
I just wish that I wasn't always
leaving and saying goodbye
so I'm saying it loud
so all can hear
I'm a mama's boy
mama I miss you
