It's all love, let's not forget who raised us, word up
3
[ll cool j]
4
Big mama, my grandmother, my main girl
5
I love you much more than the scandalous world
6
As a young boy you gave me whoopings to save my life
7
Cursed me out, to keep me out the streets at night
8
Cause my momma had me when she was young
9
So you took on the responsibility to raise your grandson
10
You taught me if a task is once begun, todd
11
Never leave it 'til it's done, todd
12
Be thy labor great or small todd
13
Do it well or not at all, god
14
Big mama, my blood is your blood
15
When the whole world's against me, I know I got your love
16
If I was in a cell for the rest of my life
17
I know I'd hear your prayers in the middle of the night
18
Used to sit me on your lap and teach me mother wit
19
Early sunday morning for them salmon and grits
20
I love you baby, you the one and only, that's a fact
21
'til death do us part, i'ma always have your back
22
You beefed cause you heard that I was cursin in my raps
23
Eighty-six, still you wanna run and get the straps
24
I love you, I promise you I care for you deep
25
Cause when I had bronchitis you would rock me to sleep
26
Rub me down with green alcohol
27
Little brown-skinned lady bout five feet tall, big mama
28
[chorus: dru hill] + (ll)
29
Early one sunday morning
30
Breakfast was on the table (you gave me unconditional love)
31
There was no time to eat, she said to me
32
Boy hurry to sunday school (you gave me unconditional love)
33
[ll cool j]
34
I remember when you told me certain friends wasn't real
35
I didn't wanna listen, I swore I knew the deal
36
Come to find out, everything you said was true
37
Who I end up goin to for advice? you
38
I love you, that's why you got nurses and maids
39
Ever since I got paid, you ain't never been afraid
40
That's granddaddy wife, she taught me how to think
41
How to navigate through life, you made the sacrifice
42
You kept on livin, cause when my granddaddy died
43
It took all your might, but you ain't quit on life
44
We took trips down south, biscuits and chicken
45
Me you granddad and alison, trippin
46
Remember, you used to pick me up from junior high
47
And classmates laughed when the buick rolled by
48
Remember, I pulled my privates out in class
49
And from farmers to dunkirk you straight whooped my (woo!!)
50
The best cookin a man could ever taste
51
It's written in my heart, it can never be erased
52
Thank you so much, you taught me well
53
How to not get souped up, because I'm ll
54
How to walk the street, and hold my head real high
55
How to live with christ and not be afraid to die
56
We sipped daquiris, but you never told moms
57
We even shared beers, big mama my dear
58
A toast to a woman that raised a man
59
In popular demand all across the land
60
You're my lawyer, my teacher, my doctor, my friend
61
My mother, my father, you with me 'til the end
62
I love you, I mean that from the bottom of my heart
63
That's the reason why my record's #1 on the charts
64
I'ma tell it like it is, I love you forever
65
Dead or alive, we'll always be together
66
Big mama I love you
67
[chorus]
68
[ll cool j]
69
I dedicate this to the big mama's everywhere
70
The ones who raised us - when nobody else was there
71
The ones who held us and told us it'll be alright
72
When gunshots was goin off every night
73
Taught us how to lock the door and check the peephole
74
And how to swallow vicks when we had a chest cold
75
How to stay proud, and represent hard
76
Eat plenty baby, but first say grace for god
77
Big mama, i'ma miss you
78
When one of us leave this earth
79
But baby for what it's worth, I love you since the date of my birth
80
And if it wasn't for my children, I would wanna go first
81
You're the reason I'm the man I am today
82
The inspiration, for me to be ll cool j
83
When you told me "knock 'em out," I brought you home a grammy
84
I learned to be tough from big mama and aunt cammy
85
A black man that was raised by black women
86
On tour, sippin your special honey and lemon
87
You told me, gargle with vinegar water and salt
88
The concert was hot, thanks to your support
89
Girl - you're the one I love
90
Whether right here with me or smilin from up above
91
Trouble or no trouble, you always had my back
92
So I had to let you know your son appreciates that, big mama
93
[chorus] - repeat 2x
