Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] You were just a kid in an old church dress Holding me close, learning the rest Gave up Friday nights and football games For midnight fevers and my last name [Verse 2] You worked two jobs, wore the same old shoes Laughed it off when the bills came due Took my side when I was wrong as sin Said, “That’s my boy” and you’d say it again (yeah) [Chorus] God gave me you, Momma When He knew I’d need a friend He put your tired little hands Right here where my world begins You’ve been through so much for me You never once let go If I could, I’d give you the whole world, Momma But you’re perfect the way you are, and I hope you know [Verse 3] Every scar and every silver line Tells the story of your sacrifice Teenage dreams that you laid down Built this house, built this hometown [Bridge] One day I’ll try to pay it back (oh momma) But there’s no price on love like that So I’ll hold you close, I’ll say it clear You’re the reason I’m standing here [Chorus] God gave me you, Momma When He knew I’d need a friend He put your tired little hands Right here where my world begins You’ve been through so much for me You never once let go If I could, I’d give you the whole world, Momma But you’re perfect the way you are, and I hope you know [Outro] Yeah, you’re perfect the way you are God gave me you, Momma, my heart

country, Warm modern country ballad with male vocals, gentle fingerpicked acoustic guitar and soft pedal steel. Verses stay intimate and close-mic’d; chorus swells with brushed drums, simple piano, and stacked harmonies on the hook. Subtle organ pad in the bridge, big emotional lift into the final chorus, then a tender, stripped-down tag line to end., world
