She still keeps that Bible by her bed
And reads her verses every night
Still tries to live by those words in red
Oh, but Momma donāt pray like she used to
And she checks in on me least once a week
Every Sunday afternoon religiously
Says she talks to God about me
Yeah, thatās just what Mommaās do
Oh, but Momma donāt pray like she used to
These days itās a little more thank you Lord
Instead of askinā him for help
Cause these days Iām a little more
Put together Lord
Instead of putinā her through hell
Every night itās still Amen
Cause thatās what Mommaās do
Oh, but Momma donāt pray like she used to, no
I donāt keep her up, not like I did back then
Donāt need no help no more makinā rent
And I got someone who loves me
The way sheād want her to
So Momma donāt pray like she used to, no
Yeah, these days itās a little more thank you Lord
Instead of askinā him for help
Cause these days Iām a little more
Put together Lord
Instead of putinā her through hell
Every night itās still Amen
Cause thatās what Mommaās do
Oh, but Momma donāt pray like she used to, no
