Casey Frensz - Mama's Shakin' It

This is a song for all the mamas in the house
The ones who labored so that we could see the light of day
I stand before you because my mother stood before me
And had the guts to carry me inside for an 8 month ride
Until I was ready to breathe the fresh air

I stand before you
Because my mother fed me
Clothed me, taught me
And loved me enough to give me a life worth singing about
I
Don't always show my gratitude the right ways
But let it be known that I'll never forget what you've done for me
I love you mom

You know what's cookin
You can smell something bakin
If you listen for the sound
You can hear Mama shakin

Not one of us would be here
If mama weren't around
So lets sing songs of love and joy
When mama comes to town

Not one of us would know the ways
To eat, to speak, to run and play
If mama hadn't stepped right in
Just in time to save the day

You know what's cookin
You can smell something bakin
If you listen for the sound
You can hear mama shakin

She's filled with so much extra love
That there's always something more to share
She brought my spirit to the earth
So I could taste the summer air

She picked me up when I fell down
And pushed my stroller through the town
She cooked me meals that made me strong
I'm not a chef, but here's a song

You know what's cookin
You can smell something bakin
If you listen for the sound
You can hear mama shakin

My mother knows the game and all its many strifes
She's been a daughter, a friend, a mother, a wife
She's soaked up the sunshine and danced between knives
This song's for my mother, I owe her my life

You know what's cookin
You can smell something bakin
And if you listen for the sound
You can hear Mama shakin
