Baby

Blake Shelton

Transposer:

My brother said that was rotten to the core I was the youngest child, so I got by with more I guess she was tired by, the time I came along She'd laugh until she cried, I could do no wrong She would always save me Because I was her baby I worked a factory in Ohio A shrimp boat in the bayou Drove a truck in Birmingham Turned twenty-one in Cincinatti Called home to mom and daddy Said, your boy's now a man She said I don't care if you're 80 You'll always be my baby She loved that photograph of our whole family She'd always point us out, for all her friends to see "That's Greg, he doing great - he really loves his job Ronnie with his two kids, how 'bout that wife he's got And that one's kinda crazy But, that one is my baby" I got a call in Alabama Said, "come on home to Louisiana And come as fast as you can fly Cause your mama really needs you She says she's gotta see you She might not make it through the night" The whole way I drove 80 So she could see her baby She looked like she was sleeping And my family had been weeping By the time that I got to her side I knew that she'd been taken And my heart it was breakin' I never got to say goodbye I softly kissed that lady And cried just like a baby

La chanson évoque les liens profonds entre un fils et sa mère, retraçant des souvenirs d'enfance marqués par l'amour inconditionnel d'une mère pour son petit dernier. Le protagoniste se remémore ses réussites et ses moments de vie tout en soulignant à quel point il restera toujours l'enfant chéri aux yeux de sa maman. Dans un tournant émouvant, il reçoit un appel urgent lui annonçant que sa mère est en fin de vie. Il se dépêche de rentrer chez lui pour lui rendre visite, mais il arrive trop tard, découvrant qu'il a perdu celle qui l'a tant aimé. La chanson nous parle de la difficulté de faire face à la perte et de l'attachement indéfectible entre une mère et son fils.
