Does Your Mama Know You're There?

Does Your Mama Know You're There
(c) 2017 Tom Tower/Kathy Boyd, BMI

The battle raged, until the quiet
Blood washed clean by rain
When all was done, no one could claim
The headstone with no name

Seasons come, wild grasses grow
So lonely, bleak and bare
Pride and courage, laid to rest
Does your Mama know you're there?

(Chorus)
Does your Mama know you're there?
She knew when you fell
Far away and all alone
No one left to tell

You've seen fields where poppies grow
Tall sugar pines
Lonely grove, where no one goes
So many bear the sign

Forest field, desert sand
Handsome, young and brave
You stood so tall, when you left home
Does your Mama know you're there?

(Chorus)

The headstone with no name
Her every breath a prayer
May we someday meet again
Does your Mama know you're there?
