Monsters in the dark and robbers in the night
Hiding in my closet, they were gonna steal me away
But she wrapped me in her arms, sang a lullaby
Told me I was safe and sound forever and always
And all was right, all was well in the world
It's a rock-a-bye baby
It's a kiss on the cheek
It's a tuck you in late when you can't fall asleep
It'll stop all the cryin'
It'll end all the fuss
Only Mama's love, Mama's love
Only Mama's love, Mama's love
Bullies on the playground and tears in my eyes
They tried to cut me deep, never quit knockin' me down
But she'd whisper to me softly, don't believe the lies
Just dust yourself brand new
And go on and get up off the ground
And all was right, all was well in the world
It's a call me if you need me
It's a be there in a blink
It's the medicine that makes you strong when you are weak
It'll stop all the cryin'
It'll end all the fuss
Only Mama's love, Mama's love
Only Mama's love, Mama's love
Only Mama's love, only Mama's love
Only Mama's love, only Mama's love
Monsters in the real world, bullies all grown up
Where you can't cry for Mama even though you want to sometimes
But she gave you somethin' special
You've had since you were young
It'll make yourself feel better every single time
It's a hello to your neighbor
It's a hand to those in need
It's pullin' off the road to do a good deed
It'll stop all the cryin'
It'll end all the fuss
Give 'em Mama's love, Mama's love
Give 'em Mama's love, Mama's love
