Feedback Requested


Any feedback is appreciated. I've always wondered about whether other listeners hear this as a fit for today's country radio? I don't write for a commercial purpose, but some folks have told me this one has commercial value... Do you agree?

What Should I Do

Written by Tonya Tyner

What should I do?
The laundry ain’t done, and it’s a quarter to two.
I’m losing my mind.
With this job and the babies, I can’t find the time.
And when will I ever get through?
Mama, what should I do?

Your hands are like mine.
You ain’t afraid to scrub on those pots and those pans ‘till they shine.
But it’s taking its toll.
My face- it’s still young- but my hands- they look old,
and I know you’ve handled this too.
Mama, what should I do?

You know I always call you when I’m feeling low.
And you know I always call you when I don’t know which way to go.
And I know you don’t have the answers to make it all clear.
Oh but Mama how I wish you were here.

And as each days goes by,
my problems pile up like this laundry of mine.
And as I pull out a load, another just comes up ahead on this road.
So would you step into my shoes,
Mama, what should I do?
What should I do?
