Lyrics

It was the winter of 1982,
in a Volkswagen Beatle called Bugaboo!
Two days from Denver,
through the snow and the sleet,
me in front, no car seat and no heat.
It was little Hairy Cocoa, and me and ma.
Stopped every other exit
so our bodies could thaw.
We were off to start a new life
over by Illinois,
just me and my momma,
I’ll always be a momma’s boy!

My Momma did the best that she could!
She always made a good home
in a bad neighborhood.
I was always hard to keep round.
Always smoking camel lights
and drinking Mickey’s down town.
I’m so sorry momma.
I know that as a teen I was not a joy.
We made those hard times,
just you and me momma,
I’ll always be a momma’s boy!

Whenever I find myself falling,
you’re always there when I come calling on ya. Momma, all the words in the world couldn’t tell you the way I feel!

Now don’t you worry momma.
You can always count on your pride and joy.
Things are gonna be just fine.
I’ll always love you momma,
I’ll always be a momma’s boy!
