11. The Hand That Rocks the Cradle, Glen Campbell and Steven Wariner

Arguably one of the sweetest songs on this list, The Hand That Rocks the Cradle is a big-picture look of what it means to be a mom, from the first day home from the hospital onward. We all wish everyone gave moms their due the way that Campbell did.
Most mom-tastic lyric:
There ought to be a hall of fame for mamas/ Creation’s most unique and precious pearls/ And heaven help us always to remember/ That the hand that rocks the cradle rules the world
10. Mother Like Mine, The Band Perry

May all mothers of three kids or more have the beloved fruit of their loins team up to write a ballad about them.
Most mom-tastic lyric:
Oh the wars would all be over/ ‘Cause she’d raise us all as friends/ And no one would ever wonder if somebody wanted them
