Another day has come and gone,
I need a reason to go on,
Tell me that you' re coming home
Tell me that you're not alone
Tell me son, that you're happy,
sailing on the seas
Don't you miss being home,
lounging in your jeans?
I shake myself, and to God I pray,
that you make it thru, another day
It s so hard to watch your baby grow,
I worry , that you're in danger
But to God and his angels, your momma prays,
to them, you are no stranger.
Your good friend Jake says he' s doing well
He sends his love, from florida its hot as hell
He misses you, and so do I,
His momma fights the urge to cry.
I' m a sailors mom, and I'm doing fine
You've taught me to be brave
Just sometimes, my boy , my precious son,
the fear comes in a wave.
I m sorry, that you heard me cry,
I never got to explain,
I stubbed my toe, really hard and was crying from pain.
A sailors mom almost never cries,
We stand strong and tall
If our baby boys can do all this,
then you know that we can t fall
Your momma here, is doing fine
as well as I can be.
I' m feeling better every day,
'cause of the pride you've given me
So you got a medal, for shooting your gun!!
I knew you 'd be the best
I wrote and called just everyone,
North, South, East and West.
I am so proud of you, my wonderful son
And, a tear in my eye, you 'll never see,
You' ve made me strong, you;ve make me proud
As proud as a momma can be
Forgive me, my baby,
That day i sounded bad,
My back, it probably hurt
Because my you know, my son, my world
You have never made me sad.
A sailors Mom, I am,
A sailors Mom, I'll be
Until the day, my baby boy
Comes sailing home to me
