Mama Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Mama
Please be good, please be good to me
Mama
Please be good, please be good to me
Mama
Hovering over me at night
Mama
Comfort me; make me feel all right
[Pre-Chorus]
I walk alone and
See what boys should never
See in their lifetime
[Chorus]
I live in the world of spirits
And I talk to the walls
Deliver me from
This little hell
Deliver me from
This little hell
Deliver me from
[Verse 2]
Mama
Come and take, come and take my hand
Mama
Try and see, try to understand
Mama
Looking through, looking through my eyes
Mama
Everywhere, always in disguise
[Pre-Chorus]
I walk alone and
See what boys should never
See in their lifetime
I live in the world of spirits
And I talk to the walls
Deliver me from
This little hell
Deliver me from
This little hell
Deliver me from
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 3]
Mama
Please be good, please be good to me
Mama
Please be good, please be good to me
[Pre-Chorus]
I walk alone and
See what boys should never see
I hear what boys should never hear
In their lifetime
[Chorus]
I live in the world of spirits
And I talk to the walls
Deliver me from
This little hell
Deliver me from
This little hell
Deliver me from
[Outro]
Mama
Please be good, please be good to me
Mama
Please be good, please be good to me...
