Riding in the backseat
Sipping on a Pepsi
Looking out the window
Driving to the bus stop together
I tell her
Only 3 sleeps and I'll be right back
And that we're gonna have
A good time
When I come to get her
And I'll call every single night
I'll miss her every day
But as she kisses me and waves goodbye
I could hear her say
(Chorus)
Stay at home
Mother
Stay at home
Stay at home
Mother
Stay at home
I've been working late nights
Making up for the times
That I wasn't in the crowd
Cheering out loud at her school plays
Tickets to the circus
Maybe a new bike
I just want her to know
That I love her
More than working all day
But the price will never measure up to
What's inside a box
While I run her all around the world
She tells me to stop
(Repeat Chorus)
We could play house and pretend
That tomorrow
You won't be gone
Stay at home
Mother
Stay at home
Wishing things were different
Doesn't change one memory
My little girl grew up
While I was too busy to see
Now she's become the one thing
That I could never be
(Repeat Chorus)
Where she could have a house
And a couple of kids
And never have to be alone
As a
Stay at home
Mother
Stay at home
Mother
Stay at home
