People always say I have a laugh
Like my mother does
Guess that makes sense
She taught me how to smile when things get roughI've got her spirit
And she's always got my back
When I look at her
I think I wanna be just like thatWhen I love, I give it all I got
Like my mother does
When I'm scared, I bow my head and pray
Like my mother doesWhen I feel weak and un-pretty
I know I'm beautiful and strong
Because I see myself
Like my mother doesI've never met a stranger, I can talk to anyone
Like my mother does
I let my temper fly but she can walk away
When she's had enoughShe sees everybody, for who they really are
I'm so thankful for her guidance
She's helped me get this farWhen I love, I give it all I got
Like my mother does
And when I'm scared, I bow my head and pray
Like my mother doesWhen I feel weak and un-pretty
I know I'm beautiful and strong
Because I see myself
Like my mother doesShe's a rock, she is grace
She's an angel
She's my heart and soul
She does it allWhen I love, I give it all I got
Like my mother does
And when I'm scared, I bow my head and pray
Like my mother doesWhen I feel weak and un-pretty
I know I'm beautiful and strong
Because I see myself
Like my mother doesI hear people saying
I'm starting to look
Like my mother does
