Momma worked four-twelves at the ER Some nights sister made dinner Single parent house in a Bible Belt town We were always a little bit different And I was her wild child by a country mile A hell-raising natural-born sinner But I was her baby, too She said, "Son, I believe in you" She sees the right in all my wrongs She sees the best in everyone She says I'm right on track And when I'm not, she brings me back She sees what only angels can She sees me better than I am Every day I'm still tryna be Whatever she sees in me
Had a heartbreak, took it real bad Ended up six months in a rehab Sober was a hard thing 'Til I found a six-string Still wish daddy coulda seen that Yeah, but momma did Front row saying, "That's my kid"
She sees the right in all my wrongs She sees the best in everyone She says I'm right on track And when I'm not, she brings me back She sees what only angels can She sees me better than I am Every day I'm still tryna be Whatever she sees in me Whatever she sees in me I'm a long shot, I'm a train wreck She ain't gave up on me yet She sees the right in all my wrongs She sees the best in everyone She says I'm right on track And when I'm not, she brings me back She sees what only angels can She sees me better than I am Every day I'm still tryna be Whatever she sees in me ♪ I'm a long shot, I'm a train wreck She ain't gave up on me yet
