Mama's Kitchen

Cece Winans


I remember Saturdays helping Mama in her kitchen 
Conversations prying, baking with passing down the wisdom 
She said babygirl you're a queen and this is how you should be treated 
Words she washed with tears and planted in my soul 

[Chorus]
Can we just go back to the simple kinda living? 
Can we just go back and maybe start from the beginning? 
Back to better days, when love was for the giving 
Can we just go back to the way we were? 

Mama said there was a time when brothers were each others keepers 
Sisters held each other close till there was nothing left between them 
Back when a song was a song you could sing along didn't matter how long 
Just as long as it spoke to ya, sung to ya 
Do you know what I mean? 

Now I'm chasing rainbows and dreams, 
trying hard to believe 
this is how it could be 
Yesterday was yesterday, tomorrow's just a day away 
By then it may be too late, maybe we can start today
