Those Hands Lyrics - Rhett Akins

She was a mom back when moms didn't work 

She just did the laundry and brushed off the dirt 

She cooked all the meals and scrubbed all the floors 

And she mowed that front yard with that old push mower 

All of those years without the help of a man 

She held us together with those delicate hands 

Those hands have rocked some cradles 

Calmed many a cryin' child 

Set ten thousand supper tables 

Now it's time to rest those hands a while 

Those hands have done some prayin' 

Worn just one wedding band 

Now there ain't much time 

And there ain't much strength 

But there's a lot of love left in those hands 

If I had a dime for every button she sewed 

All the tears she's dried and bedtime stories she's told 

I'd buy back the years back from old father time 

Just sit here and hold her hands in mine

Set ten thousand supper tables 

Now it's time to rest those hands a while 

Those hands have done some prayin' 

Worn just one wedding band 

Now there ain't much time 

And there ain't much strength 

But there's a lot of love left in those hands 

There's a lot of love left in those hands
