My brothers said that i'm Rotten to the core I was the youngest child So I got by with more I guess she was tired by The time I came along She'd laugh until she cried I could do no wrong She would always save me Because I was her baby
I worked a factory in Ohio A shrimp boat in the Bayou I drove a truck in Birmingham Turned 21 in Cincinnati Called home to mom and daddy I said your boy is now a man She said I don't care if you're 80 You'll always be my baby
She loved that photograph Of our whole family She'd always point us out For all her friends to see That's Greg he's doin' great He really loves his job And Ronnie with his two kids How 'bout that wife he's got And that one's kind of crazy But that one is my baby
I got a call in Alabama To come home to Louisiana And come as fast as you can fly 'Cause your mama really needs you And says she's gotta see you She might not make it through the night The whole way I drove 80 So she could see her baby
She looked like she was sleepin' And my family had been weepin' By the time I got to her side And I knew that she'd been taken And my heart it was breakin' I never got to say goodbye
I softly kissed that lady... And cried just like...a baby
