Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Sorry, Mom, I smelled like cigarettes
And my eyes were Casa red, with a poundin' in my head
Showin' up again on Sunday mornin'
You just made the eggs and turned your head
[Verse 2]
Sorry, Mom, you know that I had sex
'Fore I bought the white dress
I know you're not impressed
With my lack of stickin' to the Bible
Yeah, I got regrets, but you did your best
[Chorus]
I turned out alright
So you can sleep good at night
Maybe I ran all the red lights
Maybe we got into a few fights
It's a different cloth we cut
But underneath, we're the same blood
So I know it took a little tough love
To become the woman that you're proud of
[Verse 3]
Sorry, Mom, I didn't graduate
After two years and some change
And that money went to waste
I know it wasn't cheap tuition
There were dreams to chase
And songs to play
[Verse 4]
Sorry, Mom, I missed your fifty-eighth
I was on another plane goin' to another stage
My priorities were out of balance
You told me to go
But wished I was home
[Chorus]
Now I turned out alright (Oh, alright)
So you can sleep good at night (Sleep good at night)
Maybe I ran all the red lights
Maybe we got into a few fights
It's a different cloth we cut
But underneath, we're the same blood
So I know it took a little tough love
To become the woman that you're proud of
Sorry, Mom
[Outro]
Now I turned out alright
And we both sleep good at night
I met a guy that we both like
And I got a house with a porch light
It's a different cloth we cut
But underneath, we're the same blood
So I know it took a little tough love
To become the woman that you're proud of
Sorry, Mom
