"Dear Mama" by Tupac is the first one that comes to mind. He was so expressive and his lyrics was on the money. You could tell he really loved his mother.

N II U - I Miss You

The Intruders - I'll Always Love My Mama

Another song about the same thing (which is much better, in my opinion) is Letting Go by Suzy Bogguss.

[QUOTE=BruceWillisFan]*Mamas, don't let your babies grow up to be a cowboy- Willie Neilson; various people (i forgot who sang it with him. lol)

That was a No. 1 hit (on Billboard's country chart) by Waylon Jennings &
Willie Nelson, in January 1978. It remained in the No. 1 spot for four weeks
(and in the Top 40 for a total of 12 weeks). One of their many duets.

The actual title of the song is "Mamas Don't Let Your Babies Grow Up to Be Cowboys" and was written and originally recorded by actor/singer Ed Bruce in 1976.
