Tell Mama Lyrics

[Verse 1: Joy Williams]
You thought you had found a good girl
One to love you and give you the world
Now you find that you’ve been misused
Talk to me, I’ll do what you choose
I want you to

[Chorus: Joy Williams & John Paul White]
Tell Mama all about it
Tell Mama what you need
Tell Mama
And I’ll make everything alright

[Verse 2: Joy Williams]
That girl you had didn’t have no sense
She wasn’t worth all the time you spent
She had another man throw you outdoors
Now that same man is wearing your clothes

[Chorus: Joy Williams & John Paul White]
Tell Mama all about it
Tell Mama what you need
Tell Mama
And I’ll make everything alright

[Verse 3: Joy Williams]
She'd embarrass you anywhere
She’d let everybody know she didn’t care
But give me a chance, I’ve been begging you
I just want to take care, take care of you

[Chorus: Joy Williams & John Paul White]
Tell Mama what you need
Tell Mama what you need
Tell Mama
I’ll make everything
I'll make everything
I'll make everything alright
