Lyrics
Chorus
“M” is for the million things she gave me
“O” means only that she’s growing old
“T” is for the tears were shed to save me
“H” is for her heart of purest gold
“E” is for her eyes, with lovelight shining
“R” means right, and right she’ll always be
Put them all together, they spell “MOTHER”
A word that means the world to me
Chorus
“M” is for the mercy she possesses
“O” means that I owe her all I own
“T” is for her tender sweet caresses
“H” is for her hands that made a home
“E” means everything she’s done to help me
“R” means real and regular, you see
Put them all together, they spell “MOTHER”
A word that means the world to me
