Mama Was a Saint, Daddy Was a Sinner Video (MV)

Daddy left Mama before I could even speak
I don't remember him
I guess he don't remember me
He chose the bottle and life without us until the grave
There ain't much else there really is to say

Mama was broken
Wept for days and nights
Praying Heavenly Daddy help us to be alright
I thank God for blessings he gave
Getting us through as Mama held the faith

Mama was a saint
Daddy was a sinner
Left us cold before I could remember
Youngest of five, the only boy in tow
A boy without a daddy leaves a hole in the soul
Mama prayed for us from January to December
Mama was a saint
Daddy was a sinner

Cloudy afternoon
Me and brother in law
We was cleaning that gun and the thing went off
Now I'm lying there - blood soaking my shirt
Crying for Mama, course Daddy never heard

Mama didn't sleep
She just prayed all night
Saying Heavenly Daddy let my boy be alright
I thank God for blessings he gave
Letting me live and a Mama who prayed

Mama was a saint
Daddy was a sinner
Left us cold before I could remember
Youngest of five, the only boy in tow
A boy without a daddy leaves a hole in the soul
Mama prayed for us from January to December
Mama was a saint
Daddy was a sinner

Daddy, I forgive you now
Heavenly Daddy worked it all for good somehow
Mama, she forgave you too
That's just what a child of the good Lord would do

Well now I'm a daddy
Trying to be a saint
Couple boys in tow
Never want to hear them say

Mama was a saint
Daddy was a sinner
Left us cold before I could remember
Youngest of five, the only boy in tow
A boy without a daddy leaves a hole in the soul
Mama prayed for us from January to December
Mama was a saint
Daddy was a sinner
Mama was a saint
Daddy was a sinner
Mama was a saint
And it's her I'll remember
