This one came from my days in Nashville. The guys did a great job helping with the arrangement and finding the sound I was looking for. It's a tribute to all mothers.

lyrics

7 pounds and 4 ounces rockin’ (VERSE)
In a chair near the fireplace
With mama’s fingers – in her hand.

7:12 and 4 lanes are crossin’ (VERSE)
Near the school so she looks both ways
With mama’s fingers – in her hand.

Yeah there are hands out there with open arms to greet you (BRIDGE)
And there are hands dealt from, the bottom of a deck
But as long as there’s a hand to hold onto
Everything – Everything - Everything will turn out for the best.

17 and fortunes are waiting (VERSE)
To be made so she says “goodbye”
With mama’s fingers – in her hand.

7 months before she’s in labor (VERSE)
With the father nowhere in sight
Just mama’s fingers – in her hand.

Yeah there are hands out there with open arms to greet you (BRIDGE)
And there are hands dealt from, the bottom of a deck
But as long as there’s a hand to hold onto
Everything – Everything – Everything will turn out for the best.

7 months and 4 sizes larger (VERSE)
Being led up a flight of stairs
With mama’s fingers – in her hand.

7th floor and 4 nurses watch her (VERSE)
As her doctor says a prayer
With mama’s fingers – in her hand.

7 pounds and 4 ounces rockin’ (CODA)
