Whatever She Sees in Me

Momma worked four-twelves at the ER

Some nights sister made dinner

Single parent house in a Bible Belt town

We were always a little bit different

And I was her wild child by a country mile

A hell-raising natural-born sinner

But I was her baby, too

She said, "Son, I believe in you"

She sees the right in all my wrongs

She sees the best in everyone

She says I'm right on track

And when I'm not, she brings me back

She sees what only angels can

She sees me better than I am

Every day I'm still tryna be

Whatever she sees in me

Had a heartbreak, took it real bad

Ended up six months in a rehab

Sober was a hard thing

'Til I found a six-string

Still wish daddy coulda seen that

Yeah, but momma did

Front row saying, "That's my kid"

She sees the right in all my wrongs

She sees the best in everyone

She says I'm right on track

And when I'm not, she brings me back

She sees what only angels can

She sees me better than I am

Every day I'm still tryna be

Whatever she sees in me

Whatever she sees in me

I'm a long shot, I'm a train wreck

She ain't gave up on me yet

She sees the right in all my wrongs

She sees the best in everyone

She says I'm right on track

And when I'm not, she brings me back

She sees what only angels can

She sees me better than I am

Every day I'm still tryna be

Whatever she sees in me

I'm a long shot, I'm a train wreck

She ain't gave up on me yet
