“This is Mom,” Underwood told the crowd as she led Carole onto the stage on Saturday night. She asked her mom if she wanted to say anything to the fans.
Carole responded by telling the crowd, “I’m so happy you’re here, and I hope you enjoy the show.”
Underwood shared that her mom “said she knows the words, and I think she does.” Mother and daughter went on to sing Underwood’s song “All-American Girl,” which appeared on the singer’s 2007 album Carnival Ride.
Carole proved that she really did know the lyrics. Underwood put her arm around her as they performed the grand finale. “Give it up for Mom!” Underwood said as the crowd cheered. They shared a hug before Underwood led Carole off stage, telling her, “Don’t get into too much trouble out there.”

“Thanks, Mom, for everything!” Underwood wrote to close her latest post.
