Jesus And Mama Lyrics - Singles - Confederate Railroad

I made a wish upon a star 

I could have a brand new car 

Got tired of wishing 

So I stole one 

Seventeen and knew it all 

My dreams were big but my thoughts were small 

So many roads somehow I chose 

The wrong one 

But Jesus and Mama always loved me 

Even when the Devil took control 

Jesus and Mama always loved me 

This I know 

I felt trapped most all my life 

Found new kinds of lows and highs 

Never been a husband but I've had a lot of wives 

To hold me 

Headstrong, stubborn, couldn't be told 

Like a wild horse that couldn't be rode 

A rainbow chaser hungry for gold 

And still searchin' 

But Jesus and Mama always loved me 

Even when the Devil took control 

Jesus and Mama always loved me 

This I know 

I wish Mom could see me now 

And how I've turned it all around 

Lately I've been going down 

The right road 

Life's a picture that you paint 

With blues and grays and can and can'ts 

Heaven knows I'm not a saint 

But I know 

Jesus and Mama always loved me 

Even when the Devil took control 

Jesus and Mama always loved me 

This I know
