Mona’s Song (G-Maw’s Still Rollin’)
(Verse 1)
Her name is Mona, but around here she’s known,
As G-Maw and Gammy, the queen of her throne.
She starts every morning with coffee in hand,
Working her Wordle just the way she planned.
She’s got stories for days and advice for free,
And if she’s worried, well, she’ll worry for three.
But through every challenge and all life brings,
She’s tougher than people think.
(Chorus)
Oh, G-Maw, keep rollin’ down the road,
In that little red Sonata you’ve always drove.
With a heart full of love and a mind so strong,
You’ve been fighting your battles all along.
Life may test you, but you always come through,
Showing us all what courage can do.
And no matter what tomorrow may bring,
You’ll always be our Mona, our queen.
(Verse 2)
She used to see Dr. Salopeck through the years,
Now Dr. Viennes and Dr. Brennan are here.
Helping her fight what life has thrown her way,
One brave step at a time each day.
Bronchiectasis tries to steal her breath,
A-fib keeps her heart putting her to the test.
Pneumonia comes calling when she least expects,
And heart failure’s a battle she faces with strength.
But she’ll still grab her coffee and work her Wordle game,
And climb every mountain that comes her way.
She’s got a spirit that won’t back down,
The toughest lady in this town.
(Chorus)
Oh, G-Maw, keep rollin’ down the road,
In that little red Sonata you’ve always drove.
With a heart full of love and a mind so strong,
You’ve been fighting your battles all along.
Life may test you, but you always come through,
Showing us all what courage can do.
And no matter what tomorrow may bring,
You’ll always be our Mona, our queen.
(Bridge)
Bronchiectasis, A-fib, and heart failure too,
Would have stopped a lot of people, but they couldn’t stop you.
Through pneumonia and worries and the hard days you’ve known,
You keep showing us all how courage is grown.
The doctors can help, and medicine can try,
But your strength comes from something deep inside.
A warrior’s heart and a stubborn streak,
That’s the Mona we love every week.
(Final Chorus)
Oh, G-Maw, keep rollin’ down the road,
In that little red Sonata you’ve always drove.
With a heart full of love and a mind so strong,
You’ve been fighting your battles all along.
So here’s to your coffee, your Wordle, your smile,
And all the ways you’ve carried us mile after mile.
No matter where this journey may lead,
Your family’s love is all you’ll ever need.
(Outro)
Her name is Mona, and if you know her well,
You know she’s got stories she’ll always tell.
She’s our G-Maw, our Gammy, our guiding light,
And we’ll be loving her with all our might.
So keep that coffee brewing and that Wordle nearby,
Keep waving from your Sonata as you drive by.
Because through every battle, one thing remains true—
G-Maw, this family is stronger because of you.
