It’s all right and all wrong

when your tying to get along raising a family

 

When your pure in your soul

and your forced to take control cause your hearts been left to dry

 

The pressure was on

but her love carried on and you know she had her pride

 

And the look in our eyes makes you just wanna cry

But you know you’ve got to be strong

Cause the man in your life wasn’t much of a man

He’s left you here alone

 

Mother Power

                 I feel you

                            I believe in you.............Mother Power

Mother Power

                 I love you   

                            everything you do.........Mother Power

 

She always wore a smile, she never let you know

how much she hurt inside

 

She struggled all her life to keep us all in line

and you know we gave her pain

 

And it’s nobody’s fault we all tried to get along

we did the best we can

 

And she bet on her life playing bingo at nights

it was her only getaway

Lucky charms at her side maybe she’ll win some tonight

So she can give us a little more.........................................CHORUS

 

And I know you feel ashamed and I know you feel the blame

cause you think you let us down

But you are more than you see, an inspiration to me , you are my fairytale
