18 years have come and gone
For momma they flew by
But for me they drug on and on
We were loading up that Chevy
Both tryin not to cry
Momma kept on talking
Putting off good-bye
Then she took my hand and said
Baby dont forget

Before you hit the highway
You better stop for gas
Theres a 50 in the ashtray
In case you run short on cash
Heres a map and heres a Bible
If you ever lose your way

Just one more thing before you leave
Dont forget to remember me

This downtown apartment sure makes me miss home
And those bills there on the counter
Keep telling me Im on my own
And just like every Sunday I called momma up last night
And even when its not, I tell her everythings alright
Before we hung up I said
Hey momma, dont forget to tell my baby sister Ill see her in the fall
And tell mee-ma that I miss her
Yeah, I should give her a call
And make sure you tell Daddy that Im still his little girl
Yeah, I still feel like Im where Im supposed to be
Dont forget to remember me

Tonight I find myself kneeling by the bed to pray
I havent done this in a while
So I dont know what to say but
Lord I feel so small sometimes in this big ol place
Yeah, I know there are more important things,
But dont forget to remember me
But dont forget to remember me
