Heard the door slam
Mama held me tight
Daddy's truck roared
Deep into the night
Belt on the table
Bourbon in his hand
Mama's soft prayers
I didn't understand
Pre-chorus
When he raged like thunder
She stood like a wall
Protected her baby
Through it all
Chorus
Devil raised me
Angel saved me
Hell and grace
Made me who I am today
Devil raised me
Angel saved me
Mama's love
Washed the hate away
Verse 2
Back road Sunday
Church bells ring
Daddy cursed God
Mama chose to sing
Bruises hidden
By her summer dress
Still she smiled
And kept us blessed
Pre-chorus
When he brought the storm in
She brought the light
Taught me real strength
In the darkest night
Chorus
Devil raised me
Angel saved me
Hell and grace
Made me who I am today
Devil raised me
Angel saved me
Mama's love
Washed the hate away
Bridge
She could've run
Could've left me there
But she fought back
With nothing but prayer
Every strike
Every cruel word spoken
Made her spirit
Rise unbroken
Guitar Solo
Yeah-yeah-yeahhh
Final Chorus
Devil raised me (Stand tall)
Angel saved me (Through it all)
Hell and grace
Made me who I am today
Devil raised me (Rising high)
Angel saved me (Never die)
Mama's love
Washed the hate away
Outro
Mama's love...
(Still standing tall)
Washed it all away...
(Through it all)
