Make Your Mama Proud Lyrics - The Blue Dogs

I don't have a PhD, I'm a simple man but if you ask me 

About my philosophy, all I'd have to tell ya 

Is I know wrong from right, well, it's mostly black and white 

But it does get gray sometimes that's when I remember 

But daddy said, "Boy when you've got to choose 

Which road to take all you've got to do is" 

You make your mama proud and let your mama know 

You'd be nowhere without her prayers and faith and hope 

Make your mama smile and know without a doubt 

That everything works out when you make your mama proud 

Well, there's a million self-help books, full of clever pop-psych hooks 

I don't give them a second look, you know they just confuse me 

Dr. Phil, Dr. Ruth, they're okay but to tell the truth 

Well, I know my daddy's view is a lot less complicated 

'Cause when you gotta problem y'all, you've gotta face it 

But you can make this world a better place if you 

You make your mama proud and let your mama know 

You'd be nowhere without her prayers and faith and hope 

You make your mama smile and know without a doubt 

That everything works out when you make your mama proud 

I guess, Moses must have run out of tablet 

'Cause he left out the 11th commandment 

Daddy said, "Boy when you've got to choose 

Which road to take all you've got to do is" 

You make your mama proud and let your mama know 

You'd be nowhere without her prayers and faith and hope 

Make your mama smile, you know without a doubt 

That everything works out when you make your mama proud 

Yeah, you're gonna make your mama proud 

You know, you make your mama proud 

It's your [Incomprehensible]
