Don't Forget to Remember Me

Don't Forget To Remember Me - Graham Blvd.

Eighteen years had come and gone

For mama they flew by

But for me they ** on and on

We were loading up that Chevy

Both tryin' not to cry

Mama kept on talking

Putting off goodbye

Then she took my hand and said

"Baby, don't forget

Before you hit the highway

You better stop for gas

There's a fifty in the ashtray

In case you run short on cash

Here's a map, and here's a Bible

If you ever lose your way

Just one more thing before you leave

Don't forget to remember me."

This downtown apartment sure makes me miss home

And those bills there on the counter

Keep telling me I'm on my own

And just like every Sunday I called mama up last night

And even when it's not, I tell her everything's all right

Before we hung up I said

"Hey mama, don't forget

To tell my baby sister

I'll see her in the fall

And tell Me-maw that I miss her

Yeah, I should give her a call

And make sure you tell daddy

That I'm still his little girl

Yeah, I still feel like I'm where I'm supposed to be

don't forget to remember me."

Tonight I find myself kneeling by the bed to pray

I haven't done this in a while

So I don't know what to say

But, Lord, I feel so small sometimes in this big ol' place

Yeah, I know there's more important things

But don't forget to remember me

Don't forget to remember me
