Songs that mention family

[Pea-n-Me]

My Little Town

My Mom doing the laundry

 

[Pea-n-Me]

 

[E&Cmom]

 

[Pea-n-Me]

Did they send me daughters
When I asked for sons?

 

[Julie's Haircut]

 

[Julie's Haircut]

 

[LuvOrlando]

Just a dirt road with trash on each side
But I was Mario Andretti
When daddy let me
Drive

 

[LuvOrlando]

Lightning crashes, a new mother cries
Her placenta falls to the floor
The angel opens her eyes
The confusion sets in
Before the doctor can even close the door

Lightning crashes, an old mother dies
Her intentions fall to the floor
The angel closes her eyes
The confusion that was hers
Belongs now, to the baby down the hall

 

[LuvOrlando]

Yeah, she'll tell you she's an orphan
After you meet her family

 

[LuvOrlando]

Mississippi in the middle of a dry spell
Jimmy Rogers on the Victrola up high
Mama's dancin' with a baby on her shoulder
The sun is settin' like molasses in the sky

 

[RedAngie]

Two from Mrs. Allman

I was born in the wagon of a travelling show
My mama used to dance for the money they'd throw
Papa would do whatever he could
Preach a little gospel
Sell a couple bottles of Doctor Good

My father married a pure Cherokee
My mother's people were ashamed of me
The Indian said that I was white by law
The White Man always called me "Indian Squaw"

 

[Pea-n-Me]

He says: "Son can you play me a memory?"
I'm not really sure how it goes
But it's sad and it's sweet and I knew it complete
When I wore a younger man's clothes

 

[Pea-n-Me]

The family and the friends you break
Who cried and watched you drive away
Asking God to please keep you in mind

 

[LuvOrlando]

Daniel my brother you are older than me
Do you still feel the pain of the scars that won't heal?
Your eyes have died but you see more than I
Daniel you're a star in the face of the sky

 

[LuvOrlando]

Stuck inside these four walls
Sent inside forever
Never seeing no one
Nice again
Like you, Mama
You, Mama
You

 

[Pea-n-Me]

"Mama's Opry," Iris Dement

And here's her mama:

 

[theluckyrabbit]

"All the Time in the World," Clive Gregson and Christine Collister

 

[chickapin parterre]

got all choked up and I threw down my gun
And I called him my pa, and he called me his son,
And I came away with a different point of view.
And I think about him, now and then,
Every time I try and every time I win,
And if I ever have a son, I think I'm gonna name him
Bill or George! Anything but Sue! I still hate that name!
