How did you find the energy, Mom br To do all the things you did, br To be teacher, nurse and counselor br To me, when I was a kid. br br How did you do it all, Mom, br Be a chauffeur, cook and friend, br Yet find time to be a playmate, br I just can't comprehend. br br I see now it was love, Mom br That made you come whenever I'd call, br Your inexhaustible love, Mom br And I thank you for it all.
