(Momma can't see me down here) Momma always knew when I'd break a promise She could see it when she looked in my face And before she went to heaven I promised her I'd change But my life’s become a shame and disgrace I know that somewhere there's a heaven And I know my precious mother is gonna be there I hope there's a wall around heaven So momma can't see me down here I know if she could see me how sad her heart would be Cause I'm worse now than I've ever been before But momma I'm gonna change and I'll live for the Lord I'll meet you in heaven some sweet day I know that somewhere there's a heaven And I know my precious mother is gonna be there I hope there's a wall around heaven So momma can't see me down here (Momma can't see me down here)
