Mama, you're my daddy too
I have never known a man
Any stronger than you
Gave me breakfast every morning
Got me off to school
Then you'd run and catch the 'cross town bus
To go and do your day job and provide for us
Come home tired and weary
Sometimes barely able
But you always manage
To put supper on the table
Mama, you're my daddy too
I have never known a man
Any stronger than you
Daddy left us long time ago
Before I can recall
Ask me what he's done for me?
Nothing at all
We wouldn't recognize each other
If I walked by an old avenue
Thank God, all dads are not like him
But then all moms are not like you, oh Mama
People sometimes think that it's a shame
When they ask me what's my daddy's name
And I say, "Mama, my daddy's name is Mama"
And I say it with a real sense of pride
You've been my doctor, been my nurse
Through my better and my worse
You've always been by my side
Oh Mama, you're my daddy too
I have never known a man
Any stronger than you
Gave me wisdom, gave me knowledge
Gave me every tool
Let me know I don't know everything
But I'm nobody's fool
The main thing that you gave me
Was life's golden rule
Taught me how to love somebody
I love you, Mama
And I'll always be thankful for you
And I don't ever want a child of mine
To ever have to say
Mama, you're my daddy too
You're my daddy too
