Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Out where the maple leaves glow
On a road that folks all know
Mama worked two jobs, kept the lights on
Packed our lunches before dawn
Three boys in a narrow house
Big dreams trying to break out
She said, “Stand tall, keep your boots clean”
And she meant it every time
[Pre-Chorus]
She wore courage like a coat
Held that whole place up with hope
When the world got hard and heavy
She made us steady
[Chorus]
Waterbury, Vermont
That’s where we learned what love is
Waterbury, Vermont
Mama raised three good men with grit
She held the line
Made us into something fine
Waterbury, Vermont
Still runs through these veins of mine
[Verse 2]
Snow piled high by the screen door
Mud in spring on the old front porch
One truck, one Bible, one stubborn heart
That’s how she built our start
We learned work from her old hands
How to shake, how to stand
How to say yes sir, no ma’am
And never fold when life got rough
[Pre-Chorus]
She wore courage like a coat
Held that whole place up with hope
When the world got hard and heavy
She made us steady
[Chorus]
Waterbury, Vermont
That’s where we learned what love is
Waterbury, Vermont
Mama raised three good men with grit
She held the line
Made us into something fine
Waterbury, Vermont
Still runs through these veins of mine
[Bridge]
Now we’re spread out down the road
But we all know where home is
It’s in her laugh, in her faith
In the way she never quit
[Chorus]
Waterbury, Vermont
That’s where we learned what love is
Waterbury, Vermont
Mama raised three good men with grit
She held the line
Made us into something fine
Waterbury, Vermont
Still runs through these veins of mine

Style
Country with a driving acoustic strum, tight kick-snare backbeat, fiddle fills, and a steady bassline; verse rides warm and story-rich, pre-chorus lifts with harmony rises, chorus hits with clap-along gang vocals and a chantable hook. Lead vocal stays close-mic and conversational, with stacked thirds on the chorus and small delay throws on the title line. Ear candy includes fiddle licks into the turnaround, a handclap pickup before each chorus, and a short pedal-steel swell in the bridge. Bright, open, and radio-ready mix., country
