(Verse 1)

I was born by the river, where the sky turns dark and deep,

Mama and Daddy worked so hard, they never got much sleep.

They gave us everything they could, yeah, more than I ever knew,

Taught us how to stand up straight, and make our dreams come true.

(Chorus)

They did everything they could, just to see us rise,

Through the storms and the hard times, they kept those tears from their eyes.

Gave their blood, sweat, and tears, never asking for a thing,

Mama and Daddy, you’re the reason why I sing.

(Verse 2)

Daddy worked down at the mill, Mama held this family tight,

Through the struggle and the grind, they showed us wrong from right.

With my sister by my side, we learned love and sacrifice,

Through the pain and all the heartache, they always paid the price.

(Chorus)

They did everything they could, just to see us rise,

Through the storms and the hard times, they kept those tears from their eyes.

Gave their blood, sweat, and tears, never asking for a thing,

Mama and Daddy, you’re the reason why I sing.

(Bridge)

Now the years have come and gone, but their love remains so true,

Every step they took for us, oh, I’m grateful through and through.

(Chorus)

They did everything they could, just to see us rise,

Through the storms and the hard times, they kept those tears from their eyes.

Gave their blood, sweat, and tears, never asking for a thing,

Mama and Daddy, you’re the reason why I sing.

(Outro)

Yeah, Mama and Daddy, you’re the reason why I sing.

Gave us everything, you gave us everything.
