This song from the movie Goddess ranges from the funny to the poignant as it tells the plight of a mother's self-doubt in her parenting, especially in the absence of her own mother. The arrangement evokes the country feel of the original but recasts it as suitable for barbershop contest, with an added verse to set the scene in the absence of the film's narrative.
