Written for My Beautiful Mom.... She bravely Battled Cancer for a year, and she passed away January 3, 2009. She got to hear this song before she left to get her wings. I Love you Mom, I miss you so much!.......
There is an intentional nod to Lennon's "Julia" as he wrote it for his Mom...

A Coal Miners's Daughter born in fourty-three
A sweet West Virginia Destiny.
Four Brothers five Sisters Surrounded you
With the gift of love you made it through.
You met a fine man in nineteen sixty-two
He fell in Love with his sweet Mary Lou.
The two of you married back in sixty-three,
And soon you started a new family.
Oh Mom,
I'm a lucky man you raised me and made me who I am.
Mother Mary,
You will always stand right here next to me, you will always be with me..
Mother Mary....
We moved to a home in nineteen-seventy.
After working hard and saving.
I remember it well like it was just yesterday.
Your little Boy was sick and you made it go away....
Oh Mom,
I'm a lucky man you raised me and made me who I am.
Mother Mary,
You will always stand right here next to me, you will always be with me..
Mother Mary....
I'm now a man, your two sons have grown.
We have a family of our own.
Brother Mike and I try to be the best we can.
To Caitlin, Meghan, and sweet Aidan.
Oh Mom,
You're a Grandma now, you're blessed with three Grand Children .
Mother Mary
Sweet Memories will always stay with them,
We will always Love you, Our Angel Mary Lou.....
