Mama Said |
When Mama said that it was okay |
Mama said that it was quite alright |
Our kind of people had a bed for the night |
And it was okay |
Mama told us we were good kids |
And Daddy told us never listen to the ones |
Pointing nasty fingers and making fun |
'Cause we were good kids |
Remember asking both my mom and dad |
Why we never travelled to exotic lands |
We only ever really visit friends |
Nothing to tell when the summer ends |
We never really went buying clothes |
Folks were passing on the stuff in plenty loads |
New shoes once a year and then |
Out to play ball so we could ruin them |
When Mama said that it was okay |
Mama said that it was quite alright |
Our kind of people had a bed for the night |
And it was okay |
Mama told us we were good kids |
And Daddy told us never listen to the ones |
Pointing nasty fingers and making fun |
'Cause we were good kids |
Don’t get me wrong, I didn’t have it bad |
I got enough loving from my mom and dad |
But I don’t think they really understood |
When I said that I wanted a deal in Hollywood |
I told them I'd be singing on TV |
The other kids were calling me a wannabe |
The older kids, they started bugging me |
But now they're all standing right in front of me |
When Mama said that it was okay |
Mama said that it was quite alright |
Our kind of people had a bed for the night |
And it was okay |
Mama told us we were good kids |
And Daddy told us never listen to the ones |
Pointing nasty fingers and making fun |
'Cause we were good kids |
I know which place I'm from |
I know my home |
When I’m in doubt and struggling |
That’s where I go |
An old friend can give advice |
When new friends only know a half story |
That’s why I always keep them tight |
And why I'm okay |
I said I'm okay |
You know what my mama said? |
You know what she told me? |
When Mama said that it was okay |
Mama said that it was quite alright |
Our kind of people had a bed for the night |
And it was okay |
Mama told us we were good kids |
And Daddy told us never listen to the ones |
Pointing nasty fingers and making fun |
'Cause we were good kids |
When Mama said that it was okay |
