Mama don't cry, don't you worry about me   I'm a little bit scared but I'm gonna be all right   I've got the letter that you gave me folded in my pocket   I've gotta feeling like I need to read it maybe one more time   And let it ease my mind      It's a wide, wide world looking out this window   Thirty thousand feet above the ground I grew up on   Just a small town girl out here chasing rainbows   Doing what I can to stand up on my own   You taught me well, you raised me right   So Mama don't cry      I remember standing at the end of the driveway   Looking down that highway wondering how far it goes   And I can feel your hand resting on my shoulder   Hear you saying, baby, don't forget when you're grown   That road will always lead you home      It's a wide, wide world looking out this window   Thirty thousand feet above the ground I grew up on   Just a small town girl out here chasing rainbows   Doing what I can to stand up on my own   You taught me well, you raised me right   So Mama don't cry      [Instrumental Interlude]      It's a wide, wide world looking out this window   Thirty thousand feet above the ground I grew up on   Just a small town girl out here chasing rainbows   Doing what I can to stand up on my own   You taught me well, you raised me right   So Mama don't cry
