Mother's Day was written in 2017 after the release of Bury Me In Philly.
lyrics
Mother’s Day
It was Mother’s Day
When you came clean
We let the car run under the overpass like when we were teens
You said it ground you down
You said you’d made a mess
You said your world was gray
And the kids were the only color that was left
I think i spoke too soon
I always hate it when you cry
I should’ve told you then what i’m writing now
It kept me up all night
You’re gonna be fine
Mother’s Day comes and goes
Summer will be here soon
To chase the chill away
To chase regret out with the ghosts
You’re gonna be fine
Give it some time you’ll see
You’ll have those east coast springs
3 head strong kids
You’ll have jesus
And you’ll have me
You’re gonna be fine
It was a parking lot
Near that south carolina dive
I came unglued
I freaked you out
Let the bees out of the hive
I let it go to long
Long past the point of fun
I hadn’t gotten out of my system yet
I said i’d move home, that i was done
I think I spoke too soon
I always hate to make you cry
Like on mother’s day, when you told me again
Folks like us are never satisfied
But we’re gonna be fine
Just like you told me before
I can pick back up and get to work
I can walk right out the door
We’re gonna be fine
It took Carolina to see
We’ll have heads like hives
We’ll have mother’s day
So thank your jesus for the bees
We’re gonna be fine
