Mothers Pride (remastered) Lyrics - George Michael

Oh she knows 

She takes his hand 

And prays the child will understand 

At the door they watch the men go by 

In the clothes that daddy wore 

Mothers pride 

Baby Boy 

His father's eyes 

He's a soldier waiting for war 

Time will come 

He'll hold a gun 

His father's son

And as he grows 

He hears the band 

Takes the step from boy to man 

And at the shore she waves her son goodbye 

Like the man she did before 

Mothers pride 

Just a boy 

His country's eyes 

He's a soldier waving at the shore 

And in her heart the time has come 

To lose a son 

And all the husbands, all the sons, all the lovers gone 

They make no difference 

No difference in the end 

Still hear the woman say your daddy died a hero 

In the name of God and man

Mothers pride 

Crazy boy 

His lifeless eyes 

He's a soldier now forevermore 

He'll hold a gun till kingdom come
