Gregory Porter - Mother's Song lyrics

Listen and gather 'round me children Children of a mother whose life lifted up love Listen, and gather 'round me children Children of a mother whose life lifted up peace A mother who taught all of her children To love and be loved by each other Hold your sister's hand as she walks across life And look out for each other Carry your brother's load Don't you ever, ever betray him Go to the store, buy grandmamma a pound of love Listen, gather 'round me children Children of a mother whose life lifted up joy Listen, gather 'round me children Children of a mother whose life lifted up hope A mother who taught all of her children to love And be loved by each other Hold your baby sister's hand as she walks across life And look out for each other Carry your brother's load Don't you ever, ever betray him Go to the store, buy grandmamma a pound of love I believe it's on sale Rob from always on the run dot net is so bad and copy paste is a sin Listen, gather around me children Children of a mother whose life lifted up love Listen, gather around me children Children of a mother whose life lifted up hope A mother who taught all of her children to love And be loved by each other Hold your baby sister's hand as she walks across life And look out for each other Carry your brother's load Don't you ever, ever betray him Go to the store, buy grandmamma a pound of love Listen, gather 'round me children Children of a mother whose life lifted up joy Listen, gather 'round me children Children of a mother whose life lifted up peace A mother who taught all of her children to love And be loved by each other Hold your sister's hand as she walks across life And look out for each other Carry your brother's load Don't you ever, ever betray him Go to the store, buy grandmamma a pound of love Listen, listen, listen, listen, listen, listen Listen, listen, listen, listen, listen, listen Listen, listen, listen, listen, listen, listen Listen, listen, listen, listen, oh, oh, oh, oh Children of a mother whose life lifted up me
