18 years have come and gone For momma they flew by But for me they drug on and on We were loading up that Chevy Both tryin not to cry Momma kept on talking Putting off good-bye Then she took my hand and said Baby dont forget
Before you hit the highway You better stop for gas There is a 50 in the ashtray In case you run short on cash Heres a map and heres a Bible If you ever lose your way
Just one more thing before you leave Dont forget to remember me
This downtown apartment sure makes me miss home And those bills there on the counter Keep telling me Imon my own And just like every Sunday I called momma up last night And even when its not, I tell her everythings alright Before we hung up I said Hey momma, dont forget to tell my baby sister I will see her in the fall And tell mee-ma that I miss her Yeah, I should gi have her a call And make sure you tell Daddy that Imsti will his little girl Yeah, I sti will feel like Imwhere Imsupposed to be Dont forget to remember me
Tonight I find myself kneeling by the bed to pray I havent done this in a while So I dont know what to say but Lord I feel so small sometimes in this big ol place Yeah, I know there are more important things, But dont forget to remember me But dont forget to remember me |
