lyrics

Mama learned to pray today
it's been so long coming
I want to call you all and say
the magic works
and she’s coming home

There a farmer’s daughter
feed the cows and haul the water
prove them all wrong
Beautiful and headstrong

Some roads bring you closer
Some take you farther away
Some things get broken
some things get worn away

Grace, sometimes
you gotta dig so deep
Grace, sometimes
you gotta let it go

Bridge:
Was your dream deferred?
Did we get it right?
Can we offer words
instead of fight?
Easy chair don’t seem so easy now

The queen hit the floor
but she didn’t bounce back
spent a long, long night
contemplating her fate

She was ready
when the morning came
Bring a blouse and a make-up case
She said I don’t really need much
where I’m going

Grace, sometimes
you gotta dig so deep
deeper till you understand

Mama learned to pray today
It's been so long coming
I want to call you all and say
the magic works
and she’s coming home
coming home
