She Loved A Lot In Her Time Lyrics

She Loved A Lot In Her Time lyrics

I started drinking and actin' crazy

Way back in sixty five

Mama would pray and say, he's my baby

Lord, please keep him alive



Sister came home with two little children

Her man had left her alone

Mama knew too well the hurt she was feelin'

'Cause daddy had been gone so long



We all did our part to add to her pain

We all broke her heart but she never complained



She loved a lot in her time

She watched love grow and die on the vine

She stood in the shadows

So others could shine

She loved a lot in her time



Mama's prayers were answered a long time ago

I ain't touched a drink in ten years

Sister remarried to a good ol' boy

They don't live far from here



Mama's work is done

Now, she's gone on home

The words in our hearts

Are engraved on her stone



She loved a lot in her time

She watched love grow and die on the vine

She stood in the shadows

So others could shine

She loved a lot in her time



She stood in the shadows

So others could shine

She loved a lot in her time



Mama, you loved a lot in your time
