Lyrics
Mama Said Verse 1 Mama often told me ‘bout the yesteryear, How people cared and always shared, Having love made days go happier, Children by the fire were cozier, Nothing fancy but it mattered not, Cause money did funny things to people. CHORUS Mama said: [Counter Vocal: To Papa] You and me together, We could make life better … Mama said … Mama said Mama said: [Counter Vocal: To Papa] If we help each other, The load would be much lighter … Mama said … Mama said Verse 2 Two men fighting on old Clinton Street, Over silver dollar left by cheats, What can I do about the irony? It’s a no win situation I can see, Jeering crowd aloud for blood and bone, Cause money do funny things to people. Bridge People are afraid … their world is crumbling, Mama’s words are ringing … they are humbling … Repeat Chorus Verse 3 Mama’s left our world in grievous pain, Now the Teamsters stand in rain, Jobless on the streets in Idaho, Are hoping like the youths of Navajo, The sick and hungry found a way to cry, Oh help me, I’m hungry … quarter or dime …Repeat Chorus
