Every little league game, every middle school play
Every time I scraped my knee
Every double shift, every penny pinched
Just for my brother and sister and me
My first song came out all wrong
But you told me it was good
I'm standing now to a sold-out crowd
Just like you said I would
Every time I hit rock bottom
You picked me right back up
When I felt like I was nothing
You said, "Son, you're more than enough"
And I'm the man I am today 'cause you cared
And I wouldn't be here if you hadn't been there
♪
Learned to drive, to tie a tie
And how to bait a hook
That all the answers to my questions
Could be found in the good book
Taught me patience is a virtue
And to learn from my mistakes
That the love of a good woman
Is worth more than money in the bank
Every time I hit rock bottom
You picked me right back up
When I felt like I was nothing
You said, "Son, you're more than enough"
And I'm the man I am today 'cause you cared
And I wouldn't be here if you hadn't been there
Oh yeah, if you hadn't been there
Every time I hit rock bottom
You picked me right back up
When I felt like I was nothing
You said, "Son, you're more than enough"
I'm the man I am today 'cause you cared
It took a heart of gold and a million of Mama's prayers
I wouldn't be here, oh, I wouldn't be here
If you hadn't been there
Oh, if you hadn't been there
