Momma I'm growing up and I need you to know
That you're one of my best friends
But soon you're gonna have to let go
I know you think it's sad
Yeah, it's sad for me too
But if we didn't have these growing pains
I wouldn't love you the way I do
I think I'm turning out alright, thanks to you
And momma I'm ready for the real world
Just watch what I can do
I'm a woman that you can be proud of
Like your momma was when she raised you
I'm gonna need you in my darkest hours, and on my best days too
I'm sure gonna make mistakes but let me learn my lessons
I'm gonna cry and when I do
As I keep getting older I'll still need your shoulder
Senior high school year, graduation day
We cried us a river cause your baby's going away
Far from this town, away from all I know
But it's okay, I'll learn to live my life from the love you gave me at home
And if I'm doing great, or down to my last prayer
I know it doesn't matter, I know you'll still be there
I'm a woman that you can be proud of
Like your momma was when she raised you
I'm gonna need you in my darkest hours, and on my best days too
I'm sure gon make mistakes but let me learn my lessons
I'm gonna cry and when I do
As I keep getting older I'll still need your shoulder
I'm sure gon make mistakes but let me learn my lessons
I'm gonna cry and when I do
As I keep getting older I'll still need your shoulder
