[Verse 1]
Her coffee gone cold on the counter
Backpacks leaned by the door
She ties one shoe while she’s laughing
Says "You’ve both been here before"
Kisses their heads
Wipes her hands on her jeans
Tells her girl "Go chase that dream"
Tells her boy “You do the same”
[Chorus]
She’s Mama of the Year
In a small kitchen kingdom
Holds it all together with a sweet little grin
She’s Mama of the Year
Keeps the whole house spinning
Teaching him how to stand
Teaching her she can win
Mama of the Year
[Verse 2]
He asks
"What’s it mean to be honest?"
She sets down the pan
Looks his way
"It’s owning your heart and your choices
Even when you’re scared of what they’ll say"
Her daughter’s there
Watching it all
How he learns to rise when he falls
Her daughter asks
“What does it mean to win”
She turns to her and says
“It’s being honest to your heart and your
Choices”
[Chorus]
She’s Mama of the Year
In a small kitchen kingdom
Holds it all together with a sweet little grin
She’s Mama of the Year
Keeps the whole house spinning
Teaching him how to stand
Teaching her she can win
Mama of the Year
[Bridge]
She tells her boy
"Real strength is gentle
Open doors
Not just your mouth"
She tells her girl
"Your voice is thunder
Fill the room
Don’t fade out"
Two small hands gripped in hers
She’s raising more than just her wee ones
[Chorus]
She’s Mama of the Year
In a small kitchen kingdom
Holds it all together with a sweet little grin
She’s Mama of the Year
Keeps the whole house spinning
Teaching him how to stand
Teaching her she can win
Mama of the Year
