I made a wish upon a star
I could have a brand new car
Got tired of wishing
So I stole one
Seventeen and knew it all
My dreams were big
But my thoughts were small
So many roads somehow I chose
The wrong one
But Jesus and Mama always loved me
Even when the Devil took control
Jesus and Mama always loved me
This I know
I felt tried most all my life
Found new kinds of lows and highs
Never been a husband but I've had
A lot of wives to hold me
Headstrong, stubborn, couldn't be told
Like a wild horse that couldn't be rode
A rainbow chaser hungry for gold
And still searchin'
But Jesus and Mama always loved me
Even when the Devil took control
Jesus and Mama always loved me
This I know
I wish Mom could see me now
And how I've turned it all around
Lately I've been going down
The right road
Life's a picture that you paint
With blues and grays, cans of canvas
Heaven knows I'm not a saint
But I know
Jesus and Mama always loved me
Even when the Devil took control
Jesus and Mama always loved me
This I know
