Mama Was A Loser

[Verse]
My mind was open
Before I saw the light of day
I knew what’s important
Soon as it came my way
Now thank the lord (Thank the lord)
For the few things that he gave
For rich or poorer
Follow me to grave

[Chorus]
Mama was a loser
But It don’t run in the blood
Mama was a loser
But It don’t run in the blood
Papa used to use her
Drag her through the mud
Mama was a loser
But It don’t run in the blood

[Verse]
Living on bread and water
Never killed anyone till now
But getting rich or poorer
Is a matter of know-how
Now thank lord (Thank the lord)
For the things he smile on me
Mama was a scorer
But not as high as me

[Chorus]
Mama was a loser
But It don’t run in the blood
Mama was a loser
But It don’t run in the blood
Papa used to use her
Drag her through the mud
Mama was a loser
But It don’t run in the blood (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)

I’m alone and [?]
Riding for the wanted man[?]
Then a man came running
And said, “boy, you made a fine”
Now thank lord (Thank the lord)
For the piece of a family tree
Mama was a loser
Now only count on me

[Chorus]
Mama was a loser
But It don’t run in the blood
Mama was a loser
But It don’t run in the blood
Papa used to use her
Drag her through the mud
Mama was a loser
But It don’t run in the blood

[Chorus]
Mama was a loser (Mama was a loser)
But It don’t run in the blood (oh, yeah, yeah)
Mama was a loser
But It don’t run in the blood (blood)
Papa used to use her (Oh, papa used to use her)
Drag her through the mud (Drag her, drag her)
Mama was a loser (Mama was a loser)
But It don’t run in the blood (ah, oh-oh)
