Lyrics
If My Mama Ruled the World (By Neil Cotton…2004) V1~ Mama has 2 rules both are right Good guys don’t go ‘ROUND startin’ fights Like all mothers everywhere Mama's next rule is to always share. Chorus~ If Mama ruled the world It would be a safer place, With much less aggression Less greed and pain, Less talk of war and the high price of oil If my Mama ruled the world. V2~She said Maybe someone’s tougher than you Or has very little or nothing to lose. Son you know you’re luckier than most Try to give but never boast. ~Chorus If Mama ruled the world It would be a safer place, With much less aggression Less greed and pain, Less talk of war and the high price of oil If my mama ruled the world. V3 An older boy broke Mama’s first rule. He tripped me on my way to school. Her second law seemed to fit the crime I shared my pain with a kick to his groin. C~ If Mama ruled the world It would be a safer place, With much less aggression Less greed and pain, Less talk of war and the high price of oil If my Mama ruled the world.
