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
ok
Mama
told us
that
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
the stuff
in plenty loads
New
shoes
once a year
and
then
Out to play
ball
so
we could
ruin
them
When

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 the deal
in hollywood
I
told them
I'll be
singing
on TV
The other
kids
were calling
me
a wannabe
The older kids
they
started
bugging me
But
now
they
all
standing
right in front of
me
Mama said
that
it was okay
Mama said

I know
which place
I'm from
I know
my home
When
I'm
in doubt
and
struggling
That's where
I'll go
An old friend
can
give advice
When
new friends
only
know
a half story
That's why
I'm
always
keep them tight
And
why
I'm okay
I said
I'm
OK
You know what
my mama
said?
You know what
she
told
me?
