Don't forget to remember me
And those bills there on the counter
But for me they drug on and on
I called Mama up last night
Just one more thing before you leave

”Here's a map and here's a Bible
And just like every Sunday
Sure makes me miss home
For Momma they flew by
But don't forget to remember me
Both tryin' not to cry
And tell Mee-Mal that I miss her
But Lord I feel so small sometimes
”And make sure you tell daddy
If you ever lose your way
This downtown apartment
Momma kept on talkin', puttin' off goodbye
Yeah I should give her a call”
But don't forget to remember me”
Eighteen years had come and gone
Keep tellin' me I'm on my own
Tonight I find myself kneelin' by the bed to pray
Then she took my hand and said
Before we hung up I said
“Hey Mama don't forget”
Yeah I still feel like I'm where I'm supposed to be
In this big old place
Don't forget to remember me”
I haven't done this in a while

”Baby don't forget”
You better stop for gas
In case you run short on cash”
We were loadin' up that Chevy
And even when it's not
I'll see her in the fall
That I'm still his little girl
So I don't know what to say
And there's a fifty in the ashtray
”Before you hit the highway
”To tell my baby sister
Yeah I know there's more important things
I tell her everything's all right
