Karaoké Mama Knows Shenandoah

Me and Jimmy Crowder and a single cigarette

Crouched down in a stall out in the barn

Three puffs later we were sick as we could get

Prayin' we'd get better before we got home

She saw me comin' through the back door screen

I knew the minute that she looked at me

Mama knows

Mama knows

Sometimes I think she's got a window to my soul

Mama knows

Mama knows

Even when I think it doesn't show

Mama knows

Me and Becky Johnson ankle deep in ocean waves

Pants rolled up and hearts out on our sleeves

Both feelin' more than either one of us could say

That first love left the sweetest memory

Fifteen and shy

I didn't tell a soul

How is it mama never has to be told

Mama knows

Mama knows

Sometimes I think she's got a window to my soul

Mama knows

Mama knows

Even when I think it doesn't show

Mama knows

I wasn't home when mama passed away

I didn't get to say I love you but I've got this feelin'

Mama knows

Mama knows

Sometimes I think she's got a window to my soul

Mama knows

Mama knows

Even when I think it doesn't show

Mama knows

Mama knows
