"God Talks To Momma" lyrics

All them long nights I was so lost, doing anything I could to get lost
Thought I was all on my own, still not sure how I ever made it home
The random calls at 2am, not sure how she knew where I'd been
Lied and told her I was with my friends, I guess God really talks to mama

Man, I was lucky to make it out here alive, I thank God for the prayers and God that I survived
I was wondering how she knew that I'd been out in the streets
I was off showing my tail, I'd been drunk for some weeks
She'd always seem to call at the right time
I'd pick up the phone and tell her a couple lies like
Mama, I don't know what you're talking about
She'd just laugh and say, Son, I think it's time to calm down

All them long nights I was so lost, doing anything I could to get lost
Thought I was all on my own, still not sure how I ever made it home
Them random calls at 2am, not sure how she knew where I'd been
Lied and told her I was with my friends, I guess God really talks to mama

Now I'm older, got some kids of my own
Stay prayed up cause I'm the head of my home
Plus my wife makes sure that we ain't raising them wrong
Cause you know it's gonna take a village just to get them all grown
Trying to be the best I can, feel like a lucky man just to be their dad
Every time my wife makes a call to them kids, I can't help but look back and laugh a bit like

All them long nights I was so lost, doing anything I could to get lost
Thought I was all on my own, still not sure how I ever made it home
The random calls at 2am, not sure how she knew where I'd been
Lied and told her I was with my friends, I guess God really talks to mama
I guess God really talks to mama
I guess God really talks to mama
I guess God really talks to mama

I guess God really talks to mama
