The AD on Friday's gig is asking for some Mothers Day songs. All I can come up with is Ernie K. Doe's "Mother In Law" and, er, that ain't gonna cut it.

So all suggestions gratefully received. Thanks.

"The Hand that Rocks the Cradle" - Glen Campbell.
"I Want A Girl, Just like the Girl that Married Dear Old Dad".
"That's All Right Mama" - Elvis
"Red-Neck Mother" - Jerry Jeff Walker (just kidding)
Probably not "Mama Tried" either.
Gotta leave for work now, I'll check the song list on my laptop.

I know, you meant songs with meaningful lyrics to sing along.
Well, I don`t know if there are lyrics to this song I heard on the IrishActs website. Its track 2 => Leanbh Mo Chroi (Child of my Heart). Its an amazing instrumental piece. A touching one...

It can be found on :

Another song that comes to mind is "You raise me up"

Hope you have a great time gigging !!

Thanks for all the good, useful suggestions, guys. Way more than I'll use. Thanks.

I'm surprised "Wind Beneath My Wings" wasn't on those lists ...

Good one Tony.
How about "Yakkity Yak (Don't Talk Back)"

So hard for me to be serious.
