Sorry Mom, I smelled like cigarettes
And my eyes were Casa red, with a pounding in my head
Showing up again on Sunday morning
You just made the eggs and turned your head
 
Sorry Mom, you know that I had sex
‘Fore I bought the white dress, I know you’re not impressed
With my lack of sticking to the Bible
Yeah, I got regrets, but you did your best
 
I turned out alright
So you can sleep good at night
Maybe I ran all the red lights
Maybe we got into a few fights
It’s a different cloth we cut
But underneath, we’re the same blood
So I know it took a little tough love
To become the woman that you’re proud of
 
Sorry Mom I didn’t graduate
After two years and some change and that money went to waste
I know it wasn’t cheap tuition
There were dreams to chase and songs to play
 
Sorry Mom, I missed your 58th
I was on another plane going to another stage
My priorities were out of balance
You told me to go, but wished I was home
 
Now I turned out alright
So you can sleep good at night
Maybe I ran all the red lights
Maybe we got into a few fights
It’s a different cloth we cut
But underneath, we’re the same blood
So I know it took a little tough love
To become the woman that you’re proud of
Sorry Mom
 
Now I turned out alright
And we both sleep good at night
I met a guy that we both like
And I got a house with a porch light
It’s a different cloth we cut
But underneath, we’re the same blood
So I know it took a little tough love
To become the woman that you’re proud of
Sorry Mom
