Mama Said

Mama, she has taught me well,

Told me when I was young

«Son, your life's an open book,

Don't close it 'fore its done».

«The brightest flame burns quickest».

That's what I heard her say

A son's heart sowed to mother,

But I must find my way.

That's what I heard her say

A son's heart sowed to mother,

But I must find my way.

Let my heart go,

Let your son grow,

Mama, let my heart go

Or let this heart be still,

Yeah, still.
