The Statler Brothers

You've Been Like A Mother To Me

She's seen me through lots of troubles

She's stayed up nights so I could sleep

She's given me more than comfort

She's given me something I can keep

I love her and I need her

And I want to be with her all the time

I'd fight just to keep her

And I'd die if I thought she wasn't mine

I love her every morning

Thank God for her every night

I worship the ground she stands on

And I stand on the ground, she'll be alright

When you need me, you know I'll be there

'Cause you've always been there for me

America, God knows I love you

'Cause you?ve been like a mother to me

America, we've been through troubles

And we'll make it again, just wait and see

America, God knows I love you

'Cause you?ve been like a mother to me

America, stand up and show it

That you're proud of the red, white and blue

You love her and you know it

'Cause she's been like a mother to you

America, stand up and show it

That you're proud of the red, white and blue

You love her and you know it

'Cause she's been like a mother to you

'Cause she's been like a mother to you

America
