How Mama Raised Me

I like tailgates
A bonfire by the riverside
But don’t think you need to wear sprayed on jeans
To get a ride there Friday night
And I like tough guys
Tough enough to take things slow
Who don’t worry ‘bout what their buddies think
‘n know good love has to grow
CH
I believe in how mama raised me
That a country girl can be a lady
In waiting for the right one to come along
That forever ‘s been missing in a lot of love songs
Saying goodnight after the first kiss
Taking your time figurin' out if this
Is that heart stoppin, prince charming, feels like a fairytale dream
Oh, I believe
In how mama raised me
(v2)
I aint no angel
That picture perfect girl next door
But I’ve got the right to draw the line
Stand behind what I stand for
I don’t mind letting
The boys get a real good peek
At the self respect I’m showin off
That’s more than just skin deep
(bridge)
You only get one first time and I know I wanna spend mine
With the man out there made just for me
CH
Who believes in how mama raised me
That a country girl can be a lady
In waiting for the right one to come along
That forever ‘s been missing in a lot of love songs
Saying goodnight after the first kiss
Taking your time figurin' out if this
Is that once in a lifetime, meant to be, fairy tale dream
Who believes
In how mama raised me
