Country Songs from my to son?

Through the Years - Kenny Rogers

Could not ask for more - Sara Evans and Edwin McCain

Could I have this dance - Anne Murray

I will always Love You - Dolly Parton and Vince Gill

I know a great one!!! It's "My Wish" by Rascal Flatts. The reason I thought of that song is that Jay Demarcus (Rascal Flatts band member) said that his mom said alot of the stuff in the song to him before he moved to Nashville. Here are the lyrics:

I hope that days come easy and moments pass slow,

And each road leads you where you want to go,

And if you're faced with a choice, and you have to choose,

I hope you choose the one that means the most to you.

And if one door opens to another door closed,

I hope you keep on walkin' till you find the window,

If it's cold outside, show the world the warmth of your smile,

More than anything, more than anything,

My wish, for you, is that this life becomes all that you want it,

To your dreams stay big, and your worries stay small,

You never need to carry more than you can hold,

And while you're out there getting where you're getting to,

I hope you know somebody loves you, and wants the same things too,

Yeah, this, is my wish.

I hope you never look back, but ya never forget,

All the ones who love you, in the place you left,

I hope you always forgive, and you never regret,

And you help somebody every chance you get,

Oh, you find God's grace, in every mistake,

And you always give more than you take.

Oh More than anything, Yeah, and more than anything,

My wish, for you, is that this life becomes all that you want it,

To your dreams stay big, and your worries stay small,

You never need to carry more than you can hold,

And while you're out there getting where you're getting to,

I hope you know somebody loves you, and wants the same things too,

Yeah, this, is my wish.

listen to You'll always be my baby by Sara Evans. The last verse has to deal with mom and son. Also try He get's that from me by Reba McIntire

I'm including lyrics to some of my favorites... There are quite a few to choose from... Good luck!

*****My absolute favorite is "I'll Be" Reba McEntire

When darkness falls upon your heart and soul.

I'll be the light that shines for you.

When you forget how beautiful you are

I'll be there to remind you.

When you can't find your way,

I'll find my way to you.

When troubles come around,

I will come to you.

I'll be your shoulder when you need someone to lean on.

Be your shelter.

When you need someone to see you through.

I'll be there to carry you.

I'll be there.

I'll be the rock that will be strong for you.

The one that will hold on to you.

When you feel that rain falling down.

When there's nobody else around.

I'll be.

And when you're there with no one there to hold.

I'll be the arms that reach for you.

And when you feel your faith is running low.

I'll be there to believe in you.

When all you find are lies.

I'll be the truth you need.

When you need someone to run to .

You can run to me

I'll be your shoulder when you need someone to lean on.

Be your shelter.

When you need someone to see you through.

I'll be there to carry you.

I'll be there.

I'll be the rock that will be strong for you.

The one that will hold on to you.

When you feel that rain falling down.

When there's nobody else around.

I'll be.

I'll be the sun.

When your heart's filled with rain.

I'll be the one.

To chase the rain away.

I'll be your shoulder when you need someone to lean on.

Be your shelter.

When you need someone to see you through.

I'll be there to carry you.

I'll be there.

I'll be the rock that will be strong for you.

The one that will hold on to you.

When you feel that rain falling down.

When there's nobody else around.

I'll be.

I'll be.

*****As Kari said, "You'll always be my baby" is a great one... It is very new.

There I was

Ten years old

Waiting in my room for him to come home

And I just knew

He'd be so mad

Though I begged my mother not to

she told my dad

There was no denying I had let him down

But instead of being angry

he put his arms around me

And said

In the sunlight or the rain

Brightest nights or darkest days

I'll always feel the same way

Whatever road you may be on

Know you're never too far-gone

My love is there wherever you may be

Just remember that you'll always be my baby

There I was

Twenty-one

I was so ashamed of what I'd done

On a country road

Parked one night

What started out so innocent crossed the line

There was no denying I had let God down

But instead of being angry,

He let his love surround me

And I heard

In the sunlight or the rain

Brightest nights or darkest days

I'll always feel the same way

Whatever road you may be on

Know you're never too far-gone

My love is there wherever you may be

Just remember that you'll always be my baby

There he is

My little man

I'm sure he'll get in trouble

every now and then

And I pray to God

That when he does

I'll be just as understanding

as my father was

'Cause the last thing

that I wanna do is let him down

So instead of being angry,

I'm gonna throw my arms around him

and I'll say

In the sunlight or the rain

Brightest nights or darkest days

I'll always feel the same way

Whatever road you may be on

Know you're never too far-gone

My love is there wherever you may be

Just remember

that you'll always be my baby

*****Also, "My wish" is great although it isn't necessarily just for son from mom

I hope that days come easy and the moments pass slow

And each road leads you where you wanna go

And if you're faced with a choice, and you have to choose

I hope you choose the one that means the most to you

And if one door opens to another door closed

I hope you keep on walking til you find the window

If it's cold outside show the world the warmth of your smile

But more then anything, more then anything

My wish for you, is that this life becomes all that you want it to

Your dreams stay big, your worries stay small

You never need to carry more then you can hold

And while you're out there getting where you're gettin' to

I hope you know somebody loves you

And wants the same things too

Yeah, this is my wish

I hope you never look back, but you never forget

All the ones who love you, in the place you left

I hope you always forgive, and you never regret

And you help somebody every chance you get

Oh, you find God's grace, in every mistake

And always give more then you take

But, more then anything

Yeah, and more then anything

My wish for you, is that this life becomes all that you want it to

Your dreams stay big, your worries stay small

You never need to carry more then you can hold

And while you're out there getting where you're gettin' to

I hope you know somebody loves you

And wants the same things too

Yeah, this is my wish

Yeah

My wish for you, is that this life becomes all that you want it to

Your dreams stay big, your worries stay small

You never need to carry more then you can hold

And while you're out there getting where you're getting to

I hope you know somebody loves you

And wants the same things too

Yeah, this is my wish

This is my wish

Oh, you know somebody love you

May all your dreams stay big

*****Dixie Chicks - Godspeed (Sweet Dreams)

Dragon tales and the "water is wide"

Pirate's sail and lost boys fly

Fish bite moonbeams every night

And I love you

Godspeed, little man

Sweet dreams, little man

Oh my love will fly to you each night on angels wings

Godspeed

Sweet dreams

The rocket racer's all tuckered out

Superman's in pajamas on the couch

Goodnight moon, we'll find the mouse

And I love you

Godspeed, little man

Sweet dreams, little man

Oh my love will fly to you each night on angels wings

Godspeed

Sweet dreams

God bless mommy and match box cars

God bless dad and thanks for the stars

God hears "Amen," wherever we are

And I love you

Godspeed, little man

Sweet dreams, little man

Oh my love will fly to you each night on angels wings

Godspeed

Godspeed

Godspeed

Sweet dreams

*****Lee Ann Womack - I Hope You Dance

I hope you never lose your sense of wonder

You get your fill to eat

But always keep that hunger

May you never take one single breath for granted

God forbid love ever leave you empty handed

I hope you still feel small

When you stand by the ocean

Whenever one door closes, I hope one more opens

Promise me you'll give fate a fighting chance

And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance

I hope you dance

I hope you dance

I hope you never fear those mountains in the distance

Never settle for the path of least resistance

Living might mean taking chances

But they're worth taking

Lovin' might be a mistake

But it's worth making

Don't let some hell bent heart

Leave you bitter

When you come close to selling out

Reconsider

Give the heavens above

More than just a passing glance

And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance

I hope you dance

(Time is a wheel in constant motion always)

I hope you dance

(Rolling us along)

I hope you dance

(Tell me who)

I hope you dance

(Wants to look back on their years and wonder)

(Where those years have gone)

I hope you still feel small

When you stand by the ocean

Whenever one door closes, I hope one more opens

Promise me you'll give faith a fighting chance

And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance

Dance

I hope you dance

I hope you dance

(Time is a wheel in constant motion always)

I hope you dance

(Rolling us along)

I hope you dance

(Tell me who)

(Wants to look back on their years and wonder)

I hope you dance

(Where those years have gone)

(Tell me who)

I hope you dance

(Wants to look back on their years and wonder)

(Where those years have gone)

That's all I have right now--If I think of another one I'll let you know! Good luck finding one that is perfect!
