Mama (Album Version) Lyrics
Oh I, I’ve cried a couple hundred nights
And I’ll probably cry a hundred more
From tryna live a diamond life
And you, you know you did the best you could
I know you blame yourself at times
But it’s too late to knock on wood
And I love you so much, so much that it hurts
But that don’t mean I’m gonna censor my words
Yeah I messed up, I messed up again
But I swear that my heart is as gold as it gets
Mama told me to look to heaven
“It’s a dark, dark world, it’s a dangerous place for a girl like you”
But mama, I don’t belong to heaven
‘Cause I’ve sold my soul a long time ago, just like you
Maybe life, life is just a learning curve
To get you in the nicest hearse
Or maybe it just ends on earth
And I love you so much, so much that it hurts
But that don’t mean I’m gonna censor my words
Yeah I messed up, I lost all my friends
But I swear that my heart is as gold as it gets
Mama told me to look to heaven
“It’s a dark, dark world, it’s a dangerous place for a girl like you”
But mama, I don’t belong to heaven
‘Cause I’ve sold my soul a long time ago, just like you
