Cradle To The Grave Lyrics - Singles - Bettina

Mama came from West Virginia 

Her daddy died when she was twelve 

Raised a family long before she raised her own 

Dad was always independent 

Had a mind that opened doors 

Married mom and served his country in the war 

Brother came and then my sister 

Guess you'd call me a surprise 

We were raised to keep each other safe from harm 

Thunder rolled and storms would shake us 

My brother never left my side 

He would stay with me from sunset till the dawn 

For as long as the moon lights the sky 

Every year, every day, every night 

From the cradle to the grave 

From the first breath that you take 

I'll be there for you 

Till the sun sets on our lives 

We'll laugh until we have to cry 

That will never change 

Like the memories that we make 

From the cradle to the grave 

Growing up is never easy 

We all try to find our way 

Baby sister's making music, chasing dreams 

No matter how our lives are different 

We're still the same kids mama raised 

I look out for them and they look out for me 

For as long as the moon lights the sky 

Every year, every day, every night 

From the cradle to the grave 

From the first breath that you take 

I'll be there for you 

Till the sun sets on our lives 

We'll laugh until we have to cry 

That will never change 

Like the memories that we make 

From the cradle to the grave 

Time marches on; people come and people go 

So many miles left to travel on this road 

I'll stand by you; good times and bad; when life gets 

serious 

You're not alone; nothing can come between us 

From the cradle to the grave 

From the first breath that you take 

I'll be there for you 

Till the sun sets on our lives 

We'll laugh until we have to cry 

That will never change 

Like the memories that we make 

From the cradle to the grave
